Implementing security changes online

While IMS™ is active, changes to RACF® security definitions are made completely outside of IMS.

The following general procedure describes how to make changes to RACF:

  1. In the RACF database, update the RACF security profiles that describe IMS resources (such as transactions and commands) by issuing RACF commands.
  2. Issue the RACF command SETROPTS RACLIST(classname) REFRESH to refresh the profiles for the appropriate security class in the RACF data space.
