Controlling access to spool data

You can use RACF® to provide security for your spool data, including:
  • Access to spool data
  • Data sets dumped from spool
  • Data sets restored to spool
  • JESNEWS
  • SYSIN data sets
  • SYSOUT data sets
  • SYSLOG
  • Trace data sets (for JES2).

The following sections identify which spool resources you can protect, why you might want to protect each resource, and what information you must gather from your JES system programmer so that you can implement RACF protection.
