The profiles in the APPCTP class make use of database token values. These values are maintained with the DBRETRIEVE and DBMODIFY commands of the APPC administration utility. The profile for protecting database tokens is defined to the RACF® FACILITY class. The profile is of the form:

APPCMVS.DBTOKEN

Guideline: Define this profile with a UACC of NONE:

RDEFINE FACILITY APPCMVS.DBTOKEN UACC(NONE)

Then use PERMIT commands to give user IDs and groups the appropriate access authority:

NONE

Not allowed to retrieve or modify the database tokens.

READ

Allowed to perform DBRETRIEVE on existing database tokens.

UPDATE

Allowed to perform DBRETRIEVE and DBMODIFY for the installation.
