It is possible to define a multisystem node that contains only one sy configuration might be useful as a migration path.

The RACF support for multisystem RRSF nodes includes:

ŸEnhancements to the TARGET command to allow system programmers to

configure multisystem RRSF nodes

ŸEnhancements to the RESTART command to allow operators to restart

connections to systems in multisystem RRSF nodes

ŸA new naming convention for the workspace data sets used by RACF fo communications

ŸA new connection state,definedthe state

OS/390 Enable and Disable Functions

OS/390 provides a registration service to enable and disable features. OS/390 Release 2 supports this enable and disable function.

Entries in the IFAPRDxx parmlib member specify which features are enabled disabled. When you install OS/390 Release 2, make sure that an entry e IFAPRD xx to enable RACF. If RACF is not enabled, RACF initialization will complete, and RACF will not provide security for the system.

For more information, see “Enabling RACF” on page 27.
