Issue/Introduction

Will any of these settings be carried over from Top Secret V15.0 via TSSXTEND ?

ACCESSORS
MAXACIDSIZE
ORGACIDSIZE
SCA

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA Top Secret for z/OS

Resolution

ACCESSORS, MAXACIDSIZE, and ORGACIDSIZE are determined/set when the new security file is allocated (TSSMAINS job). These will not be copied from the Top Secret v15 security file when TSSXTEND is run. The SCA (msca name/password) from the TSS v15 security file will be copied when TSSXTEND is run. This will replace the MSCA_NAME/PASSWORD that was specified when the new security file was allocated.
