Step 3: Define a RACF FACILITY class entity to check authorization

Define a RACF FACILITY class entity to protect volumes. DFSMSrmm checks that the user trying to use a duplicate or undefined volume is authorized to request that DFSMSrmm ignore the volume. The RACF FACILITY class entities are:

STGADMIN.EDG.IGNORE.TAPE.volser
STGADMIN.EDG.IGNORE.TAPE.RMM.volser
STGADMIN.EDG.IGNORE.TAPE.NORMM.volser

Only users with the correct authorization to the entities can request that DFSMSrmm ignore volumes.

Define multiple resources, as required, for individual volumes or groups of volumes by using RACF generic resource names. GLOBALAUDIT(SUCCESS) ensures that RACF maintains an audit trail of all successful uses of this facility.
