Setting Access Privileges

If the System Authorization Facility (SAF) can be used, you must make sure that the user executing
Business Continuity Manager commands has the following permissions in order to have the system
perform an SAF authorization check for each request:

CLASS: FACILITY

RESOURCE: MVSADMIN.LOGR

Permissions: ALTER or READ

CLASS: LOGSTRM

RESOURCE: log-stream-name

Permissions: ALTER

For details about log stream names, see

“Which Parameters to Specify for a Log Stream Definition”

(page 716)

.

Defining the SMS

When using the system logger service, the area for staging datasets and log datasets is allocated
by referencing the SMS definitions. As a result, to allocate a staging dataset or log dataset to a
particular volume, you must define an SMS storage group, management class, storage class, data
class, and ACS routine for the Business Continuity Manager system logger service and then use
the SMS definition to define the log stream, so that the staging dataset and log dataset are allocated
to the particular volume.

Defining a Log Stream

When a user defines a log stream with the IXCMIAPU utility, a DASD-only log stream named
according to the method described in

“Which Parameters to Specify for a Log Stream Definition”

(page 716)

should be defined before executing a CLI command.

The following is an example of defining a log stream with JCL:

//DEFINE1 EXEC PGM=IXCMIAPU
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DATA TYPE(LOGR) REPORT(YES)
DEFINE LOGSTREAM NAME(log_stream_name)
DASDONLY(YES)
MAXBUFSIZE(64000)
STG_SIZE(800)
LS_SIZE(5000)
HLQ(CCENTRAL)
/*

For details on the log stream name (log_stream_name) in JCL, see

“Which Parameters to Specify

for a Log Stream Definition” (page 716)

, and make the necessary changes according to the

environment.

For details, see the MVS Setting Up a Sysplex.

Which Parameters to Specify for a Log Stream Definition

Business Continuity Manager assigns a log stream for each system. Even in a Sysplex environment,
there is a log stream for each system where Business Continuity Manager is running.

This section explains which parameters to specify when defining a log stream with the IXCMIAPU
utility.

NAME(

log_stream_name)

The name of the log stream is CCENTRAL.LOG.system-name. For system-name,
specify the system symbol's system name (&SYSNAME).
