Define the data set profiles

READ access for users and ALTER for system programmers is sufficient for most z/OS® Explorer data sets. Replace the #sysprog placeholder with valid user IDs or RACF® group names. Also, ask the system programmer who installed and configured the product for the correct data set names. FEK is the default high-level qualifier used during installation and FEK.#CUST is the default high-level qualifier for data sets created during the customization process.

  • ADDGROUP (FEK) OWNER(IBMUSER) SUPGROUP(SYS1) 
    DATA('IBM Explorer for z/OS – HLQ STUB')
                           
  • ADDSD  'FEK.*.**' UACC(READ) 
    DATA('IBM Explorer for z/OS')
  • PERMIT 'FEK.*.**' CLASS(DATASET) ACCESS(ALTER) ID(#sysprog)
  • SETROPTS GENERIC(DATASET) REFRESH
Note:
  • Protect FEK.SFEKAUTH against updates because this data set is APF-authorized. The same is true for FEK.SFEKLPA, but here because this data sets is program controlled.
  • The sample commands in this publication and in the FEKRACF job assume that Enhanced Generic Naming (EGN) is active. When EGN is active, the ** qualifier can be used to represent any number of qualifiers in the DATASET class. Substitute ** with * if EGN is not active on your system. For more information about EGN, see Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide (SA22-7683).
