The ISSO will ensure that WRITE and/or greater access to BMC CONTROL-M STC data sets are limited to systems programmers only. UPDATE access can be given to scheduled batch jobs, operations, and production control and scheduling personnel, BMC STCs and/or batch users. READ access can be given to auditors and/or BMC users.
The installing systems programmer will identify and document the product data sets and categorize them according to who will have WRITE and/or greater access and if required that all WRITE and/or greater access is logged. The installing systems programmer will identify if any additional groups have WRITE and/or greater access for specific data sets, and once documented will work with the ISSO to ensure they are properly restricted to the ACP (Access Control Program) active on the system.
(Note: The data sets and/or data set prefixes identified below are examples of a possible installation. The actual data sets and/or prefixes are determined when the product is actually installed on a system through the product's installation guide and can be site specific.)
Data sets to be protected will be:
SYS3.IOA.*.CTMO.
The following commands are provided as a sample for implementing data set controls:
ad 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMO.**' uacc(none) owner(sys3) -
audit(failures(read)) -
data('BMC ControlM Started Task DS')
pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMO.**' id(<syspaudt> <tstcaudt>) acc(a)
pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMO.**' id(CONTROLM CONTDAY <autoaudt> <operaudt> <pcspaudt>) acc(u)
pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMO.**' id(<audtaudt> <bmcuser>) acc(r)

Refer to the following report produced by the Data Set and Resource Data Collection:
- SENSITVE.RPT(CTMSTC).
Automated Analysis
Refer to the following report produced by the Data Set and Resource Data Collection:
- PDI(ZCTM0001).
Verify that the accesses to the BMC CONTROL-M STC data sets are properly restricted. If the following guidance is true, this is not a finding.
The RACF data set access authorizations restricts READ access to auditors and BMC users.
The RACF data set access authorizations restricts WRITE and/or greater access to systems programming personnel.
The RACF data set access authorizations restricts UPDATE access to the BMC STCs and/or batch users.
The RACF data set access authorizations restricts UPDATE access to scheduled batch jobs, operations, and production control and scheduling personnel.
The RACF data set rules for the data sets specify UACC(NONE) and NOWARNING.
