Cross-posting to both IBM-Main and RACF-L

Recently implemented OPERCMDS class security.

Now having problems with SMS doing an operator command to modify OAM in
response to an operator command to SMS and the SMS task lacking a RACF
id to present to perform the operator command it needs to do.

Operator enters:
   V SMS,LIB(CPVTS05),OFFLINE

SMS responds by attempting operator  command to modify OAM.  That
command fails because SMS does not have a valid RACF id, and unknown
users are not allowed to MVS.MODIFY.STC.*
  F OAM,V,CPVTS05,OFFLINE                                               
  IEE345I MODIFY   AUTHORITY INVALID, FAILED BY SECURITY PRODUCT        
  ICH408I JOB(SMS     ) STEP(SMS     )                                  
    MVS.MODIFY.STC.OAM.OAM CL(OPERCMDS)                                 
    INSUFFICIENT ACCESS AUTHORITY                                       
    FROM MVS.MODIFY.STC.* (G)                                           
    ACCESS INTENT(UPDATE )  ACCESS ALLOWED(NONE   )                     
  CBR1920I VARY NOT SCHEDULED.  COMMAND SCHEDULING ERROR.      

Thus I am looking for DFSMS documentation on how we are supposed to have
SMS implemented such that it gets a RACF id assigned to it when it is
started.

My current plan is to get the SMS id defined along with a STARTED class
profile and IPL a test system, but IPL's of even test systems are not
easy to come by.  Also I do not know for sure that  defining the id and
the STARTED class profile will be enough for the SMS subsystem to get a
valid RACF id.   Is SMS required to be defined in ICHRIN03 for it to get
a RACF id assigned?
