That is my only opinion in that thread so far. >If you don't have the authority to do that, you can look at any SVC dump or >SYSMDUMP with IPCS. Issue the IP ST SY command. "GMT" is the value in the TOD >clock. Why would authority be denied to do 'D T' or other display commands? Where I work, I have UACC=READ for all displays except for some RACF and TCP/IP + VTAM commands where sensitive info are shown. Of course, you need to have access to SYSLOG and SDSF slash command or similar command in other products. I also believe if someone does not want you to do a simple 'D T', you probably would have been denied access to IPCS and all it goodies. >There are probably lots of other ways. Indeed! TOD and other macros as used in Assembler and in LE functions. Back to my question: Should access for sysprogs and operators to display commands be limited or not?
