Enable Mainframe Support for STA RACF Authorization
For STA to use RACF for access authentication, you must setup up an SMC Started Task that runs the HTTP server of the MVS system.
The mainframe side of the RACF service for STA is provided by a CGI routine that is part of the StorageTek Storage Management Component (SMC) for ELS 7.0 and 7.1. This CGI routine is called by the SMC HTTP server and uses RACF profiles defined in the FACILITY class. See the ELS document Configuring and Managing SMC for detailed instructions.
The SMC Started Task must match the AT-TLS rule that has been defined. Alternately, allow the AT-TLS definition to use a generic jobname (for example, SMCW). If you are using a value-supplied STC identifier (for example, JOBNAME.JOB), this will cause a CGI routine connection failure.
The port number used for the HTTP server must match the one defined in the WebLogic console, and the host must match the IP name for the host where the SMC task runs.
An existing SMC can be used if it exists on the host where RACF authorization is to be performed. In this case, use the port number of the existing HTTP server when you are performing the WebLogic configuration.
