Discussion

Tivoli Asset Discovery for z/OS (TADz) requires a started task(s) that will be restricted to certain resources, data sets, and other system functions. Defining the started task as a userid to the system Access Control Program (ACP) allows the ACP to control the access and authorized users that require these capabilities. Failure to properly control these capabilities could compromise the operating system environment, ACP, and customer data.
