SDSF environment

The following questions may help you analyze your current SDSF security:
  • Who is using SDSF, and how?

    You may find that SDSF is only used by system programmers, or that operators are using SDSF to facilitate their jobs, or that SDSF is used by everyone authorized to submit jobs on the system.

  • What sort of authorizations are permitted through ISFPARMS?

    You may find that some users only have access to the LOG panel, or that there are groups of users able to manipulate each others jobs, or that users other than operators are authorized to issue operator commands through SDSF.

  • Is there a conflict between security and productivity?
  • Are there any security exposures, for example, operators logged on unattended terminals or in an unprotected environment?
  • How will SDSF be used in the future?
