How to run with an application id?

Post by usaajrm »

Our batch jobs are submitted by our scheduling product and are assigned to run under a 'batch' only id. To use coz launcher to run a linux script, how do you suggest to approach the id issue? We have a number of these type so ids. Do we have to enable login to setup the keys on z/OS and distributed them out? Is there another approach?

The Co:Z Launcher must run under a z/OS userid that has a OMVS segment. For ssh keys, I would suggest the best approach might be to store the ssh key in a SAF/RACF certificate, rather than in the z/OS Unix filesystem.
