You will learn to use RACF to control JES, SDSF, VTAM, APPC, OMVS or USS
("UNIX under MVS"), TCP/IP, the OS/390 Firewall, Sysplex, the Message Queue
Manager, the Websphere Web Server, and MVS. You will get clear explanations
of how these system software components work, how they work with RACF, and how
you can use RACF to control them. You will learn how RACF interfaces with
other software components to provide your installation the most comprehensive
practical protection possible. This course shows you how to design RACF
exits, how to analyze the structure of the RACF dataset, and how to tune RACF
for best performance. You will learn how to plan, implement, and use RRSF,
the RACF Remote Sharing Facility (which lets you synchronize passwords and
RACF commands between RACF databases).
This course will show you how to use the most sophisticated and advanced
features of RACF. While you do not need to be a system programmer or
technician, you will want a solid understanding of RACF basics to get the most
out of this course. This course is the logical follow-on to HG04: Effective
RACF Administration.
The 400+ page reference manual contains diagrams,
worksheets, and valuable reference material not available anywhere else.
Please note that you can save money by holding these classes in-house. Call
Stu at (301) 229-7187 for details.
Note also the classes we offer for Information Technology Audit Training, as
