OpenFrame TACF System Tools
This chapter describes the tools used in the OpenFrame TACF system.
1. Overview
The following are tools used for convenient management of the OpenFrame TACF system.
Tool Name | Description |
---|---|
Prints a TACF command script that copies a specific TACF user. |
|
Provides a console to issue a TACF command in OpenFrame. |
|
Converts a dump file of the IRRDBU00 utility to a TACF command script. |
2. tacfcopy
The tacfcopy tool prints a TACF command script that copies a specific TACF user.
If you enter the ID of a user to copy and another of a user to create, a TACF command script that creates a new user who has the same permissions as the existing user is printed in the path specified to the VALUE of the UTIL_DIRECTORY key, in the TACF_DEFAULT section of the tacf subject, under OpenFrame Configuration. Executing tacfmgr, which is the TACF system management tool, along with the printed script file creates a new user who has the same permissions as the existing user for all resources and data sets.
For more information about OpenFrame Configuration, refer to OpenFrame TACF Configuration Guide. |

4. tacfmigin
The tacfmigin tool converts an output file of the mainframe IRRDBU00 utility to a TACF command script.

Once executed, a TACF command script is generated in the path specified to the VALUE of the UTIL_DIRECTORY key, in the TACF_DEFAULT section of the tacf subject under OpenFrame Configuration. The printed command script file can be entered through tacfmgr, which is the TACF system administrator tool, to convert a RACF profile into TACF profile.
