Issue/Introduction
What is the impact on CA2E if you raise the security level of IBM i running CA2E from 20 to 30?
Environment
Release:
Component: C22E
Component: C22E
Resolution
Regarding security level, there is no particular problem in normal usage (management with user profile).
However, although this is the IBM i security world, since objects in the model LIB and generated LIB are objects on IBM i, you can use the user authority to secure each object individually.
By raising the security level, you may not be able to access it if you have different permissions from the security level.
2E provides management of model authority (model access) by changing object authority for data area YMDLLIBRFA in MDL. It can be done with No.30 in the designer menu or EDTOBJAUT OBJ (YMDLLIBRFA) OBJTYPE (*DTAARA).
