System Requirements

If the Language Environment (LE) runtime libraries are not included in the link list, they will need to be added to the STEPLIB concatenation of every application that performs license checking.

The names of the LE runtime libraries as supplied by IBM are CEE.SCEERUN and CEE.SCEERUN2. These dataset names may have been changed at your site to meet local naming standards.

APF List

The load library containing the licensing load module (LICUPDAT), as well as the Language Environment (LE) runtime libraries, must be APF-authorized under either of the following conditions:

  • Licenses are loaded into common storage. LICUPDAT must run APF-authorized in order to perform the load function.

  • License checking is performed from any APF-authorized application, such as the SERNET started task.

The names of the LE runtime libraries as supplied by IBM are CEE.SCEERUN and CEE.SCEERUN2. These dataset names may have been changed at your site to meet local naming standards.

Security

You can control which users are permitted to load licenses into CSA. The load function of the licensing program (LICUPDAT) can be protected with a security profile as shown below.

Class: FACILITY
Profile Name: LICENSE.LOAD 
Access Required: READ

The commands to set up this profile for RACF are:

RDEFINE FACILITY (LICENSE.LOAD) UACC(NONE) OWNER(owner)
PERMIT LICENSE.LOAD CLASS(FACILITY) ACCESS(READ) ID(userid1 userid2 ...)
