The OS/390ART Utility

Welcome to the OS/390 Security Server Audit Tool and Report Application, OS/390ART! The installation and use of OS390ART is documented in the IBM Redbook "OS/390 Security Server Audit Tool and Report Application", which is book number SG24-4820. You can get information on this and all other IBM Redbooks at the URL http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks.

OS390ART is available as a set of files on the S/390 ftp server at ftp.software.ibm.com in the /eserver/zseries/zos/racf/os390art/ directory. You can download these files using anonymous ftp or through your web browser. The OS390ART files are:

1. OS/390 UNIX executable CREATE TABLE SQL statements
2. OS/390 UNIX executable DB2 Load Utility statements
3. Introduction and description
4. QMF control file
5. QMF forms
6. ISPF panels
7. QMF procedures
8. QMF queries
9. REXX procedures

Files 1,2 and 3 are text files, that are intended to be uploaded in ascii format. Files 4,5,6,7,8, and 9 are binary files, which must be transferred in binary format to your MVS system.

Files 4,5,6,7,8, and 8 are "package" files in TSO TRANSMIT format. Once you have imported them (in binary) to your MVS system, you must then unpackaged them using the "RECEIVE" command.

The syntax of the RECEIVE command is: RECEIVE INDATASET(dsname) RECEIVE prompts you for a target data set name.

Note: If you receive a message from the RECEIVE command that indicates that the input data set is in an incorrect format, verify that:

• The files were downloaded in binary format
• The input files to the RECEIVE are in fixed-block format

We welcome your comments and questions on the OS390ART utility. Please direct them to the RACF-L mailing list. Subscription information for RACF-L can be found from the RACF Discussionn List page.
