Mainframe Connector and z/OS Security Product Exits

Mainframe Connector optionally makes use of security product exit points (ICHPWX01 for RACF, NEWPXIT for ACF2, and TSSINSTX for TopSecret) to capture z/OS password change events. If your site will not be using your z/OS system as a transparent synchronization trigger system for Bravura Pass , the use of these exits is optional. Alternatively, the exits can be installed and effectively disabled by specifying LISTENONLY=YES in the Mainframe Connector startup parameters. By taking this approach, you allow for the exits to be dynamically ’activated’ with the MODIFY mfc , LISTENONLY=NO operator command.
