How to turn on or off the security trace in the activity log from a Solve or Netmaster region ?

 

 

Resolution

This solution is only valid with NMSAF and NMSAFF  partial security exit activated by SEC=NMSAF and NMSAFF parm in RUNSYSIN.

 

By default settings in SXPARMS member located in hlq.PARMLIB, the security trace is enabled - YES 

 

These traces are generated next to the following setting: 

************************************************************************ 
*                                                                      * 
* THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS CONTROL THE NMSAF EXIT TRACE FACILITY.      * 
*                                                                      * 
* REMEMBER THAT ENABLING TRACING REQUIRES THAT THE SXTRACE DDNAME      * 
* BE IN THE JCL                                                        * 
*                                                                      * 
************************************************************************ 

TRACE YES 
TRACEPL YES 
TRACESAF YES 
TRACEMOD NO 

If TRACE is set to NO, then the security trace is DISABLED 

TRACEPL reports trace on parameter list.
TRACESAF reports trace on SAF call (i.e : RACROUTE).
TRACEMOD reports trace on security exit module flow (on request by CA Support )

When TRACE statement is set to NO, then all TRACExx options are disabled.
