Updating parmlib members for the APF library

About this task

To activate the RACF-Offline function, make the program library APF-authorized and place it in the link list. Both operations can be performed dynamically using either operator commands or prepared members in PARMLIB. The installation library provides a sample PARMLIB member B8RSPROG that can be adapted for your environment.

Procedure

  1. To add the library to the active APF list:
    1. Add or modify a PROGxx member for the program library to the PARMLIB member.
      APF ADD DSNAME(SYS1.SB8RLNK)                SMS
    2. Issue the T PROG=xx operator command to activate the new PARMLIB member.
  2. To run the B8RACF program, use either a STEPLIB statement or add the program library to the link list.
    For initial testing, or incidental usage of B8RACF, use a STEPLIB.
  3. To add the library to the active link list:
    1. Add a PROGxx member such as the following one to PARMLIB.
      LNKLST DEFINE NAME(LNKLSTB8) COPYFROM(CURRENT)
      LNKLST ADD NAME(LNKLSTB8) DSN(SYS1.SB8RLNK)
      LNKLST ACTIVATE NAME(LNKLSTB8)
      LNKLST UPDATE,JOB=*
    2. Issue the T PROG=xx operator command to activate the new PARMLIB member.
