Issue/Introduction

What is the Top Secret command equivalent to the following command from RACF?

RDEFINE PROGRAM ** ACC(READ) ADDMEM (‘hlq.LIBRARY’ // NOPADCHK)

Resolution

There isn't a Top Secret command equivalent for this RACF RDEFINE PROGRAM ADDMEM command, however, FETCH or READ access to the libraries is necessary in order to execute the program in them. So the ACID will need FETCH or READ access to the libraries.

Since the RACF command effectively permits all Profiles/ACIDS, the ACID in Top Secret in this case is the ALL record.
 
The commands would be:

TSS ADD(dept) DSN(hlq.) (if not already done. If preferred, it is possible to own each hlq.xxxx dataset in the ADDMEM command individually instead of using the hlq. prefix.)
 
 TSS PER(ALL) DSN(hlq.LIBRARY) ACC(FETCH)  (or ACC(READ))

Where 'hlq.LIBRARY' is each dataset in the ADDMEM( .. ) section of the RACF command.
