Issue/Introduction

How to set up security to use PassTicket to logon to the SYSVIEW VTAM interface.

 

 

Resolution

The value specified for VTAM-Applid in the SYSVIEW System Configuration Options member (GSVXGSVX) should be used for the application name when defining the PTKTDATA profile, so in most cases it will be 'SYSVIEW'. 

Additional Information

For RACF the statements are :

RDEF PTKTDATA SYSVIEW OWNER(userid) UACC(NONE)  +
        SSIGNON(KEYMASKED(passkey) 

In addition to defining the profile in the PTKTDATA class, the user will need access to the application: 

PERMIT(SYSVIEW) CLASS(APPL) ID(userid)
