Authorization

The TAPESUM command requires either Tape Manager Admins or Operations authority.

When an External Security Manager (ESM) is active, the authorization requirements may be controlled by ESM profiles:

  • When Privileged_User_Authority is YES, Tape Manager Operations authority requires READ access to the operator profile.
  • When Privileged_User_Authority is YES, Tape Manager Admins authority requires READ access to the administrator profile.

For more details, refer to the IBM Tape Manager for z/VM Installation and Administration Guide (SC18-9344).
