Security requirements for the Vantage Web Client VANWEBUI started task

Products

• Vantage Storage Resource Manager

Issue/Introduction

Since this is first time we are bringing up the VANWEBUI stc we have to provide the security requirements to the security team in order to create the STC id from their end.

Please provide the required details including if the VANWEBUI needs an OMVS segment

 

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA Vantage Storage Resource Manager

Resolution

The Vantage Web Client is a Tomcat server and connect by IP to the Vantage STC on any hosts accessible.

One Vantage Web Client can access several Lpars if they are shared.

 

The Tomcat needs READ/WRITE access to the runtine and the Webclientdb directories.

The reason is that we are going to create into the Web interface dashboards and saved the data into the webclientdb for example.

Tomcat logs are written into the runtime directory.

  

Regarding the MVS data set access, none of Ca Vantage are required.

 

So in summary, the VANWEBUI STC needs data set READ access for its DDname STDENV library.

From OMVS side, it needs runtime and webclientdb READ/WRITE access.
