Configuring Take Action command access using SAF profiles

Configure Take Action command access using SAF profiles.

Take Action commands can be issued from the Tivoli Enterprise Portal and the OMEGAMON enhanced 3270 user interface. Users must be authorized to issue these commands.

System authorization facility (SAF) profiles can be used to define Take Action command authorization and access settings. This option provides centralized control to Take Action command access by a security administrator.

Note: Take Action command authorization and access can also be controlled by settings in the KGLUMAP, KGLCMAP and KppINNAM members and various environmental variables. Using these settings, any user that has update access for the KGLUMAP, KGLCMAP and KppINNAM members can manage access for Take Action commands. When using SAF profiles to define Take Action command authorization and access settings, if duplicate settings exist, the settings defined by SAF profiles are used, overriding any others.

The following tasks describe how to implement Take Action command authorization and access using SAF profiles. It is recommended that a security administrator perform these tasks.
