Access to data sets used by enterprise beans

Before CORBASERVERs can be installed in a CICS region, the following two data sets must be created with UPDATE access, defined to CICS and installed. These files can be VSAM data sets or coupling facility data tables.

Figure 1 shows an example of RACF® commands to access data sets with the necessary authorization.

Note: These files are used internally by CICS, so no users should be given resource level security access to them. This will prevent VSAM applications from accessing the data in these files.
DFHEJDIR
This data set contains a request streams directory which is shared by the listener regions and AORs comprising a CICS IIOP server. The file must be recoverable.
DFHEJOS
DFHEJOS is a data set containing passivated stateful session beans. It is shared by all the AORs comprising a CICS IIOP server. This file must not be recoverable.

PERMIT 'CICSTS31.CICS.CICS.DFHEJDIR' ID(cics_id1,...,cics_group1,..,cics_groupn)
