Security Considerations for Extracting z/OS Data

Security Considerations for Extracting z/OS Data

For the highest level of security for data from z/OS data sources, set the SECURITY option to 2 in the z/OS DBMOVER configuration member where the extraction maps are located. With this setting, a PowerCenter CDC session is permitted to extract data only if its user credentials pass z/OS security checking.
When you define a PWXPC connection for CDC sessions that extract data for a z/OS source from the z/OS system, you must enter a valid z/OS user ID and password in the
User Name
and
Password
connection attributes.
If you log captured z/OS data to remote PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows log files, when defining a PWXPC connection for CDC sessions that extract data from these log files, enter the z/OS user ID and password in the
Map Location User
and
Map Location Password
connection attributes. If the location of the PowerExchange Logger log files is not local, enter the z/OS user ID and password in the
User Name
and
Password
connection attributes for use by the PowerExchange Listener on the Linux, UNIX, or Windows system where the log files reside.
In all cases, the z/OS user credentials must be a valid z/OS user ID and password combination and have READ access to the PowerExchange data set that is defined in the DTLCAMAP DD statement of the PowerExchange Listener JCL.
To extract z/OS data from PowerExchange Logger from Linux, UNIX, and Windows log files, the z/OS user credentials also must have READ access to CAPX.CND.* resource profiles in the FACILITY class, which are managed by your z/OS security product.
