Updating the ACF2 TSO Command Limiting Table

If you use CA ACF2® for your security system, and if you use the ACF2 TSO Command Limiting feature to restrict execution access to TSO commands, add M+R program CDF$ISPF to the ACF2 Command Limiting Table.

This is the format for the table entries:

TSOtable CSECT *    REGIONAL ACF2 TABLE
TSOCST ,            TSO RESTRICTED COMMANDS LIST
$TSOCMD             CLS CLEAR SCREEN
$TSOCMD CDF$ISPF    M+R ISPF DRIVER
$TSOCEND ,          INDICATE END OF LIST END

If you use the ACF2 Command Limiting Feature and do not make the table entries above, and you attempt to use the M+R Option, the following message results:

IKJ56500I COMMAND CDF$ISPF NOT FOUND

Caution

Do not add CDF$ISPF to the TSO Command Table IKJTSOnn in SYS1.PARMLIB. If you do and you attempt to use M+R, your session will freeze and this message is displayed: ISPS118L SERVICE NOT INVOKED. A VALID ISPF ENVIRONMENT DOES NOT EXIST.
