Creating the TMEADMIN class to associate a RACF® user ID

About this task

To create the resource class EQQADMIN and map it to a RACF® user ID, perform the following steps:

Make sure your operating system has the Security Server feature.

Create the TMEADMIN class for mapping the administrator ID and host name to the RACF® user ID.

Note: If RACF® is your security product and your operating system does not have the Security Server feature, you can use the supplied samples to create the following:

RACF® TMEADMIN class EQQ9RFDE. Use the following macro, which you can access in the EQQ9RFDE member of SEQQSAMP library:

TMEADMIN ICHERCDE CLASS=TMEADMIN,
                             ID=129,
                             MAXLNTH=246,
                             FIRST=ALPHANUM,
                             OTHER=ANY,
                             POSIT= 26,
                             OPER=NO,
                             DFTUACC=NONE,
                             DFTRETC=8,
                             RACLIST=ALLOWED,
                             GENLIST=ALLOWED

RACF Router Table EQQ9RF01. Use the following macro, which you can access in the EQQ9RF01 member of SEQQSAMP library:
```
     TAB18            ICHRFRTB  CLASS=TMEADMIN,ACTION=RACF
```

Using RCAF TMEADMIN class, map the administrator ID to the RACF® user ID. The RACF® user ID is associated with the administrator defined at the workstation. Any administrative action is thereby traceable to the user issuing the request.
Define a profile in the supplied resource class TMEADMIN for each administrator who is able to access Dynamic Workload Console.
Note: In the following tasks, which are for mapping the administrator to RACF® user IDs, it is recommended that each administrator maps to a unique RACF® user ID.
Activate the TMEADMIN class by typing the following command: SETROPTS CLASSACT (TMEADMIN).
In the TMEADMIN class, use the following string to define a unique RACF® user ID for each administrator who will perform Dynamic Workload Console operations:
```
userID@hostname
```
For example, for a user with the identifier SCOT at the host pelican, you would use SCOT@pelican.
Enter the following command to define a general resource profile in the TMEADMIN class to associate the administrator with a RACF® user ID (in this example, SCOT):
```
RDEFINE TMEADMIN SCOT@hostname APPLDATA('SCOT') 
```
Note: The string SCOT@hostname is not case sensitive.
Refresh the TMEADMIN class with the following command:
```
SETROPTS RACLIST(TMEADMIN) REFRESH
```
If you experience problems using special characters to define a profile in the TMEADMIN class, use the following command instead:
```
SETROPTS GENERIC(TMEADMIN) REFRESH
```

Also, use the percent sign (%) instead of the special character. For example, for the Italian code page, the character @ (hex'B5') is not accepted by RACF®. Therefore, use SCOT%pelican instead of SCOT@pelican.

When searching a list of TMEADMIN profiles for a match, RACF® looks for the most similar generic profile.
