Re: Implementing application's variables

2017-01-04 Thread Angel Tamayo
Customer decided to make the change as usual it means hard coding the new
VAT, for future changes they want to have a best mechanism.
I appreciate all the information and suggestions you all provided here,
certainly will be explored, analised and thoroughly tested before to be
implemented.

Thanks to all.

Implementing application's variables

2017-01-03 Thread Angel Tamayo
Hi List,

Maybe this is not the best please to ask for the information I'm looking
for, if so please kindly point me to the right direction.

Due to a recent tax reform, a customer needs to change the value added tax
(VAT).
Currently they have that value inserted as part of the program's code where
is used.
Now they are looking for the best way/practice to implement that kind of
variables.

Programs are Cobol, Cobol-CICS, JAVA; no databases only VSAM, PDS, PDSE and
sequential datasets.
Customer is z/OS 2.1.

Any suggestion/recommendation will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

 Subject: Grant permission for TSO Account command

 Hi List,

 I'm migrating to zOS 1.11 from an unsupported zOS level, I defined a new
 SYS1.BRODCAST and now I'm trying to format and synchronize but I got
 COMMAND NOT AUTHORIZED FOR userid.
 I have been looking in manuals, google, IBM and my notes and I couldn't
 find(remember) how to get access to the command.

 I know that it can be granted in RACF but I don't have the command to do
 it.

 Someone of you could be so kindly and tell me how can I do it?

 Thanks.

 ...

  You weren't specific about the messages seen, but suspect you would
 have encountered

 IKJ58618I SYNC TERMINATED. USER UNAUTHORIZED TO ISSUE SYNC COMMAND. +
 IKJ58618I USER MUST HAVE ACCOUNT AUTHORITY TO ISSUE THE SYNC COMMAND.

 The userid in question must have at least READ access to a profile ACCT
 in class TSOAUTH in order to issue either the old TSO ACCOUNT command
 (made obsolete in a RACF environment by user profile TSO segments and the
 TSOAUTH class) or the TSO SYNC command.If TSOAUTH ACCT doesn't
 already exist, it should be created with UACC(NONE) and explicit READ
 access only given to those who should be allowed access to ACCOUNT/SYNC
 commands.

Related to RVARY password

2012-07-13 Thread Angel Tamayo
Hi list,

I'm working on revising some procedures for zOS support team, one of them
is related to password for RVARY command, from what I've been looking for
information, I have not managed to get and I hope you can help me:

- What are the reasons why it is implemented a password for RVARY command?
- In what circumstances is required the password for RVARY command?
- What is the recommended practice for custody RVARY password?, I mean who
should know it and who shouldn't.

Thank you.
Angel
