I can see where IF you have ALL the appropriate security profiles set up
properly, then I suppose I see your point.
Yes, I do have all the appropriate profiles set up. It's really easy.
More: it's enough not to create any of them. As I said previously, all
"powerful" functions are disabled by defualt (require explicit
authorization).
IMHO it is very (yes VERY) bad approach - to disable the tool because
someone does not know how to protect it or "just by default".
For me, though, I would rather
cut off access completely. I would ask "Why do they need it?" If your SMS
constructs and ACS routines, and your backups, are all set up properly, why
do they need to be moving data around or backing it up with DSS???
It's enough for me to know they *could* want it. However the tool allows
i.e. to copy HLQ1.DEV.** to HLQ2.TEST.** with many other options. Of
course the programmer has ALTER to both dataset profiles. In your shop
he has to do it one-by-one dataset, in my shop he codes single JCL step.
BTW: there is a list of IBM-supplied programs which should be restricted
by default. This is very short list: IEHINITT, IRRDPI00, ICHDSM00 (it's
information-only tool, it doesn't change anything).
Hammer for everyone! We should protect fingers, not hammers. <vbg>
