Step 7. Add the Library that Contains the CSNBSYD and CSNBSYE Programs to the System Link List (Optional)
Step 7. Add the Library that Contains the CSNBSYD and CSNBSYE Programs to the System Link List (Optional)
If you want PowerExchange to use the z/OS Cryptographic Services Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) to perform AES-128 encryption of user names and passwords, verify that the ICSF is enabled. Also, work with your z/OS system programmer to verify that the library that contains the CSNBSYD and CSNBSYE modules is included in the system link list.
By default, the CSNBSYD and CSNBSYE modules reside in
CSF.SCSFMOD0
. If the library that contains the CSNBSYD and CSNBSYE modules is not in the system link list, work with your z/OS system programmer to add the library to the list.
PowerExchange uses ICSF, when it is enabled, to encrypt user names and passwords. Otherwise, PowerExchange uses AES-128 encryption and decryption routines that are compatible with those in the OpenSSL Toolkit. Because ICSF uses hardware assists, its encryption and decryption routines are much faster than the alternative routines.
