APF Authorization

z/OS Open Cryptographic Services Facility Application Programming
SC24-5899-01

The SMP/E installation of OCSF now turns on the APF-authorized extended attribute for the OCSF libraries in the /usr/lpp/ocsf/lib and /usr/lpp/ocsf/addins directories. You can verify this by issuing the UNIX shell ls command with the -E option as shown in the example:

$ cd /usr/lpp/ocsf/lib
$ ls -E cssm32.dll
-rwxr-xr-x aps 2 ROOT   SYS1    737280 Nov 3 22:07 cssm32.dll

The "a" flag in the second column of the ls command output indicates that this file does have the APF-authorized extended attribute.

Note:

OCSF can only be accessed from program state (key 8).

Refer to z/OS UNIX System Services Planning for more details.
