Setting Up SSL Authorization File on z/OS

By adding the SSLAUTH DD statement to the Platform Server startup JCL, you can set up the SSL authorization file to be used with the z/OS platform.

The dataset must point to a file containing the SSLAUTH parameters.

On a z/OS system, you can define an SSLAUTH file in the following two ways:

• If the LRECL of the SSLAUTH file is 80, only columns 1 through 72 are validated.
• If the LRECL of the SSLAUTH file is not 80, all columns of the input record are validated.
