Managing Functional Authorities

Functional authorities control user access to Sterling Connect:Direct® and control which Sterling Connect:Direct commands and statements users can employ. You can use IBM® Sterling Control Center to view, add, update, or delete functional authority records on Sterling Connect:Direct for z/OS®, UNIX or Microsoft Windows servers.

Important: IBM Sterling Control Center has configuration authorities for a Connect:Direct server. These authorities are determined when Control Center connects with IBM Sterling Connect:Direct server. So, if you modify the functional authority for the user ID used by Control Center to communicate with that server, you should reconnect Control Center to Connect:Direct server by simply pausing and then resuming monitoring of that server.

You can conduct multiple actions on this configuration object. To know more, refer Actions on Configuration Objects.
