This section describes the steps for installing EntireX Security for Broker kernel under z/VSE.
Insert the following parameter in the section
DEFAULTS=BROKER of the Broker attribute file:
SECURITY=YES
Modify the SECURITY-PARMS parameter according
to your requirements: see Security Solutions in EntireX.
Note:
Setting SECURITY=YES will load the provided PHASE module
USRSEC from the EXX960 product sublibrary.
This module will issue the IBM
PRODID macro in order to obtain authorization to perform privileged operations,
such as execute the RACROUTE.
The IBM Basic Security Manager must be installed and configured on your system in order to use EntireX Security. This allows EntireX Broker to perform authentication based on a user ID and password stored in BSM for all connected application components. See IBM documentation z/VSE Installation, z/VSE Administration and z/VSE Planning for complete details of IBM Basic Security Manager (BSM).
Note:
It is not necessary to activate the Basic Security Manager in
batch.
See your IBM documentation for detailed instructions for defining user IDs for Basic Security Manager (BSM). The section Resource Definition with subsection Tailoring the Interactive Environment/Maintaining User Profiles provides a description of both online (ICCF) and batch utilities for adding user IDs. The online ICCF transaction for adding user IDs is shown below.
Required fields are shown in bold. If
DAYS=0, the password will never expire.
Alternatively, you can use the batch program IESUPDCF. See your z/VSE
documentation for details.

This is needed to pick up changes to the Broker attribute file and to initialize Broker kernel under z/VSE as an authorized subsystem able to perform security checks.
Installation of EntireX Security for Broker kernel is now complete.
This section describes the steps for installing EntireX Security for Broker stubs under z/VSE.
The delivered phases BKIMB.PHASE and BKIMC.PHASE are
linked for use with internal security, which requires an application to use ACI
version 8 or above. If you are running your application at ACI version 7 or
below, the steps above are required to install EntireX Security for the Broker
stubs in all environments where applications execute. These steps are not required if you are
running your application at ACI version 8 or above.
To enable external security, relink the stub modules BKIMB.PHASE,
and BKIMC.PHASE (and your application if it does not
dynamically load the stub).
Additionally include the following objects:
ETBUEVA
ETBUPRE
ETBVPRE
ETBVEVA
ETBENC
ETBTP
The following job control is delivered and may be used for relinking the various stub modules:
BKIMB.J
BKIMC.J
Additionally, a detailed description of how to link the stubs and your application can be found under Administering Broker Stubs under z/VSE.
Rename the phase SECUEXI0.PHASE in library EXX960 to SECUEXIT.PHASE.
