Specifying OTMA security during system definition

You can use the OTMASE= execution parameter in the IMS and DCC execution procedures to set the RACF® security level globally for all the OTMA clients in an OTMA z/OS® cross-system coupling facility group. If you use IMS Connect with OTMA, you can also enable RACF statistics to be recorded when OTMA client connections to IMS TM are authenticated.

• The levels of RACF security that you can specify by using the OTMASE= parameter include:
  • CHECK
  • FULL
  • JOIN
  • NONE
  • PROFILE

  Specifications made using the OTMASE= execution parameter can be overridden by issuing the /SECURE OTMA command.

• If you use IMS Connect with OTMA and you want to enable, during system definition, RACF statistics to be recorded when OTMA client connections to IMS TM are authenticated, specify TMRACFST=Y in the HWS statement of the HWSCFGxx member of the IMS PROCLIB data set.
