Issue/Introduction

Is there a recommended approach when running the TSO UADS conversion utility (TSSCVUAD) or any particular caution(s) you should take?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : Top Secret for z/OS

Resolution

You can modify the commands in the output from the utility if you want/need to. You can opt to apply the commands to just 1 user (or a couple users) at a time instead of all users at once. When first implementing the change, it is a good idea to start with a small number of users to test. Once testing on those users is finished, convert a medium size number and when those have been successfully implemented, do the rest. 

NOTES:
- Once the TSO information is on the Top Secret ACID, the TSO information in the UADS entry for that user will not be used. 
- In DORM mode, non security administrator ACIDs will use the UADS password when signing on to TSO.
