Defining the CICSPlex SM started tasks

For the CAS (a started task) and CMAS (when it is run as a started task), you must associate the appropriate procedure names with a suitably authorized USERID. This is normally achieved using the STARTED general resource class, or the RACF® ICHRIN03 tables. The names of the associated USERIDs need not match the names of the procedures. Each USERID must have the appropriate level of access to all of the data sets referenced in the cataloged procedures.

For additional information about the STARTED class, see the z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide. For more information about ICHRIN03, see the z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide.

Note: If the USERID and group name that you assign are not defined to RACF, the started tasks will execute with only the limited authority of an undefined user. In this case, the address space will be able to access protected resources only if the universal access authority (UACC) for the resource is sufficient to allow the requested operation.
