Defining TIBCO MFT Platform Server for z/OS as a Multi-User Facility

The platform server can handle multiple transfers for multiple users simultaneously, therefore the platform server must be defined to CA-Top Secret as a multi-user facility.

You can add the platform server as a CA-Top Secret facility by modifying the CA-Top Secret facilities matrix table. This table is contained in the CA-Top Secret PARMFILE.

Procedure

  1. Add the following entries to your PARMFILE to define the platform server as a CA-Top Secret facility.
    FAC(USER1=NAME=FUSION)	* Use the USER1 slot
    FAC(FUSION=MULTIUSER) 	* Facility can have multiple users
    FAC(FUSION=AUTHINIT)  	* Facility can issue RACINIT
    FAC(FUSION=PGM=FUS)   	* RACINIT program name starts with FUS
    FAC(FUSION=SIGN(M))   	* Allow multiple signons for the same ACID
    FAC(FUSION=NOLUMSG)	* Do not issue the Last Used message
  2. Restart CA-Top Secret to activate previous entries.
    The CA-Top Secret is restarted typically after an IPL. To make these changes dynamically without an IPL, you can enter the following TSS MODIFY commands:
    TSS MODIFY(FAC(USER1=NAME=FUSION))
    TSS MODIFY(FAC(FUSION=MULTIUSER))
    TSS MODIFY(FAC(FUSION=AUTHINIT))
    TSS MODIFY(FAC(FUSION=PGM=FUS))
    TSS MODIFY(FAC(FUSION=SIGN(M))
    TSS MODIFY(FAC(FUSION=NOLUMSG))
    In the previous example, USER1 slot is used in the facilities matrix table and renamed to FUSION. You can issue TSS MODIFY(FAC(FUSION)) to view the facilities matrix table entry to ensure that the entries are installed correctly:
    TSS9550I FACILITY DISPLAY FOR FUSION                                      
    TSS9551I INITPGM=FUS      ID=2  TYPE=099

    TSS9566I MAXUSER=03000  PRFT=003
