OTMA C/I security

To protect z/OS® cross-system coupling facility groups from any non-authorized caller use IMSXCF.OTMACI, a RACF® resource, defined in the RACF facility class for the OTMA C/I.

When the RACF resource is defined, RACF RACHECK is invoked before OTMA C/I performs a XCF JOIN. This method protects the access to XCF, the XCF group, and the member. This RACF checking is performed only when a non-authorized caller is using OTMA C/I.
