I wonder if the idea of UADS is a false sense of security
anymore.... Don’t get me wrong, we still maintain one here with a
few id's in it. But with no active security database, IPLing would
be tough. How would any UNIX task be assigned a UID/GID, etc. No
unix, no TCPIP. The only conceivable scenario might be if the
database was wiped out while the system was running?
Yes, definitely. The proper way for system recovery is to replace RACF
db from backup (or TSS, or ACF2) and re-IPL.
Logon using UADS is impractical.
Certainly true if you have no local VTAM terminals at all, which I
suppose is often (usually, even) the case these days.
