Choose and install appropriate RACF facility

The following RACF® facilities are associated with the browse mode facility:
  • EQADTOOL.BROWSE.MVS
  • EQADTOOL.BROWSE.CICS
You can install either or both facilities. The first facility controls browse mode for non-CICS MVS jobs. The second controls browse mode access in CICS® regions.
In most cases, if you install the browse mode RACF facility, then specify UACC(READ). However, assigning fac_uacc any of the following values creates the corresponding result:
NONE
Only users specifically authorized to the facility (through usr_acc of READ or higher) can use z/OS® Debugger in any way.
READ
Only users specifically authorized to the facility (through usr_acc of UPDATE or higher) can use z/OS Debugger in the normal (non-browse mode) way.
UPDATE
Users specifically authorized to the facility can be limited to using z/OS Debugger in browse mode but all other users can use z/OS Debugger in either the normal (non-browse mode) way or in browse mode, depending on the option specified for the EQAOPTS BROWSE command.

The following instructions use EQADTOOL.BROWSE.xxx to represent either or both of facilities. If you choose to install both, you need to run the steps twice, once with each name.

Do the following steps to install the browse mode facility:
  1. Establish a profile for the browse mode facility in the FACILITY class by entering the following RDEFINE command: 
    RDEFINE FACILITY EQADTOOL.BROWSE.xxx UACC(fac_uacc)
  2. Verify that generic profile checking is in effect for the class FACILITY by entering the following command: 
    SETROPTS GENERIC(FACILITY)
