For authenticated users, context sensitive help is accessible always to assist with these tasks. In each page, you can click on the help link to open a new window with help information for the page. Similarly, each message that is displayed in the interface includes a link to the help for that message.
To allow users in your installation to access z/OSMF, your security administrator must authorize the users to resources on the z/OS system. As an aid to your security administrator, z/OSMF includes sample REXX programs with RACF® commands for authorizing users. More information about security is provided in Setting up security for the z/OSMF plug-ins.
When you implement z/OSMF in your environment, it is recommended that your installation follow the concept of roles to group similar users for managing user access to tasks. z/OSMF supports your installation's security requirements for specific user permissions for each of the tasks. Role definitions can be managed entirely through your external security manager, such as RACF, based on your requirements and policies. Information about the z/OSMF profiles and resources is provided in Setting up security for the z/OSMF plug-ins.
