Fix Text (F-26284r868740_fix)
The ISSO will ensure the BMC Mainview for z/OS resource class(es) is (are) defined in the TSS RDT. (Note: The RESCLASS and/or RESCODE identified below are examples of a possible installation. The actual RESCLASS and/or RESCODE values are determined when the product is actually installed on a system through the product's installation guide and can be site specific.) Use the following commands as an example: TSS ADDTO(RDT) RESCLASS(BMCVIEW) - RESCODE(3B) DEFACC(READ) - ATTR(MASK\|NOMASK,DEFPROT,LONG,GENERIC) - ACLST(NONE,READ,UPDATE,ALL)
