Issue/Introduction
After activating the Multi-Factor Authentication Started Task, then the TSS MODIFY command is issued (As documented Below).
Question: Is the MODIFY command for MFA dynamic or does it require a restart of TSS and or an IPL to activate/deactivate?
Environment
Release : 16.0
Component : CA Top Secret for z/OS
Resolution
The MFA control option via TSS MODIFY command is dynamic and no IPL or recycle of TSS is needed.
Changes to control options via TSS MODIFY are temporary and goes away at the next IPL or recycle of TSS.
To make the control option change permanent, it must be added to the Top Secret control option file TSSPARM.
