RACF Security Administrator's Guide

This document is intended for security administrators, group administrators, and other administrators responsible for system data security and integrity on VM systems. In general, security administrators have the system-SPECIAL attribute, which allows them to issue any RACF command (except those that require the AUDITOR attribute). Group administrators have been granted specific authority (not usually granted to users) to perform security-related tasks related to a RACF group, or a RACF group's resources. Note: This document sho uld be read by RACF auditors, but is not the primary reference for them. RACF auditors should see RACF Auditor's Guide. Readers must be familiar with the RACF concepts and terminology described in RACF General Information. The readers of this document should also be familiar with VM systems.
