Files created by applications running in the servant will have permission bits set according to the default umask. To change the default umask for the servant, specify the _EDC_UMASK_DFLT environment variable in the JCL procedure for the servant. Deployment manager and application servers require group read/write access to the data in their config root.
Deployment manager and application servers require group read/write access to the data in their config root. The server must run with a 007 umask in order to support system management functions. Do not change this umask setting and your server will function correctly.
On the JCL EXEC statement, specify:
PARM='ENVAR("_EDC_UMASK_DFLT=xxx")where xxx is the umask value to use (which is 007).
Recommendation: A umask value of 007 will cause files to be created with permission bits set to 770. This is the value recommended by IBM.
