External access to IBM Z Workload Scheduler
As in the centralized installation, update access to IBM Z Workload Scheduler data sets is given to members in the OPCSPEC group. In a decentralized installation, though, all other groups must have ACCESS(NONE). This prevents members of OPCGROUP or OPER from reading data that belongs to other users. With read access to the IBM Z Workload Scheduler data sets, a user could run a utility program outside the IBM Z Workload Scheduler subsystem to look at data that belongs to another user.
