Ensuring that users have access to CICS

Before setting up user access to QMF, make sure the user is known to CICS. Define a three-character CICS terminal operator ID by defining a VSE user ID. Map the VSE user ID to a CICS terminal operator ID, and redefine the CICS ID in the the default sign-on table (SNT) that is shipped with VSE.

If your users need to connect to DB2 explicitly, grant them DB2 CONNECT authority:

GRANT CONNECT TO userid IDENTIFIED BY password
