RACF_LIBACCESS—Perform Checks on Protected Libraries

Specifies whether tableBASE should check if a tableBASE library is SAF interface protected. Examples of products which implement SAF interface protection are RACF, ACF2, and Top Secret.

This option is only available in the tableBASE Batch and IMS interfaces.

The following is a description of each parameter value:

  • Y indicates that tableBASE will check whether a library is protected. Any update attempts without update access to the library will fail with error code 61-12.
  • N indicates that tableBASE will not check whether a library is protected i.e. the behaviour will revert to pre-Release 7.0.0 prior to the implementation of library security checking (ref: TB-3041). Any update attempts without update access to the library will fail with a S913-38 for tableBASE BDAM libraries and a U301 for tableBASE VSAM libraries.

The delivered default for this parameter is N.
