Cancel a Job via SDSF

• Top Secret

Issue/Introduction

In RACF you can limit the ability to cancel a job based on who submitted the job as long as its done via SDSF.

With the following statement:

PERMIT JES2.CANCEL.BAT CLASS(OPERCMDS) ID(*) ACCESS(UPDATE) WHEN(CONSOLE(SDSF)

 

Is there a way to provide similar access in Top Secret?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : Top Secret for z/OS

Resolution

JESJOBS provides the solution.

TSS ADD(dept) JESJOBS(CANCEL)     establishes the resource ownership at the department level
TSS PER(user01) JESJOBS(CANCEL.*.user01) ACCESS(READ)     give user01 the permit to cancel only his jobs on any node
TSS PER(profile) JESJOBS(CANCEL.*.%)    gives any user (mask '%') the permit to cancel their jobs only on any node

Placing the second permit in a profile so it can be added to any user without having to directly permit it to 
them.
