Bypassing automatic data set protection (NOADSP option)

z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide
SA23-2289-00

If you have the SPECIAL attribute, you can specify that RACF® ignore the ADSP attribute (if specified in user profiles). To do this, enter:
SETROPTS NOADSP

With the SETROPTS NOADSP operand in effect, RACF does not automatically create discrete data set profiles when users who have the ADSP attribute create new data sets. IBM® recommends the NOADSP option because it reduces the number of data set profiles in the RACF database. Using generic data set profiles is generally more efficient.

You can reinstate normal ADSP processing with the ADSP operand.

ADSP is in effect when a RACF database is first initialized using IRRMIN00.
