RACF - Introduction & Basic Administration
Security
This course is designed specifically for individuals who
need to become proficient in basic, ordinary, everyday
RACF administration but are not expected to become
experts. Attendees will gain a fundamental understanding
of how RACF works along with training in administering
RACF profiles for typical end-users, groups, datasets, TSO
resources, and CICS transactions. They will be given
instructions, examples, and practical exercises for coding
the common RACF administration commands they are
most likely to use. Attendees will also be shown how to
troubleshoot typical RACF access problems.
