Summary:

How to provide secure access under CA OPS/MVS to the Switch Operations Facility (SOF) Server.

Instructions:

For internal security users follow these steps:

1. Locate the sample security rule in your CCLXRULS dataset as member SOFSECU.
2. Copy this rule into a production rule set.
3. Modify the allow list variable in the rule to include only those userids that should have access to SOF, which includes OPSVIEW option 3.5.

 Here is an example of the list:

 allow_list = 'USERID1 USERID2 USERID3 USERID4',                     
              'USERID5 USERID6 USERID7 USERID8'
 
4.Enable and auto-enable this rule

In case you are using external security member SOFSECR should be used instead.
