It is a combination. Yes Tech support makes all of the changes with a valid change record. When security changes anything dynamically, they request for us to update the parm file. When we are doing things that are required for new products, etc. we work with security to let them know what changes we are making.

Most of the parameters are commands that security should be the one to make.

Is that best practice?
