RSE daemon connection

Verify the RSE daemon connection by executing the following command. Replace userid with a valid TSO user ID that has a unique z/OS® UNIX UID. If this UID is not unique, all users sharing it must be valid TSO users.

MODIFY RSED,APPL=IVP DAEMON,userid

This command is functionally identical to the fekfivpd IVP described in Verify the services but with the benefit that no password is required. RSE generates a PassTicket and uses this as password. The command should return a success message.

Note:
  • These IVPs do not prompt for a password, and the RSE daemon will generate a PassTicket that will be used as a password. Therefore, do not use a user ID that requires you to present a Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) token before PassTickets are allowed.
  • When running on AT-TLS mode, the IVP DAEMON tool requires its secure client system socket to be configured with trusted server certificate used in the connection with Daemon through AT-TLS in the test. In the rse.env and ssl.properties files, specify an SSL configuration setting compatible with the AT-TLS SSL configuration, including the GSK* parameters and the key ring with the trusted certificate in Daemon key ring parameter daemon_keydb_file so that the tool can access. For more information about the variables, see rse.env, the RSE configuration file and (Optional) ssl.properties, the RSE encrypted communication.
