I/O configuration control authority

This control can limit the ability of the LP to read or write any IOCDS in the configuration locally or remotely. LPs with control authority for the I/O configuration data can read and write any IOCDS in the configuration, and can change the I/O configuration dynamically.

Additionally, this control allows the OSA Support Facility to control OSA configuration for other LPs and allows access to certain STP data.

Use the Customize/Delete Activation Profiles task to open a reset or image profile to enable I/O configuration control for an LP. The Input/output (I/O) configuration control selection is located on the Security page for the LP.
