( Duration: 3 Days )

In IBM Security zSecure CARLa Auditing & Reporting Language training course, learn the basics of the IBM Security zSecure programming language CARLa. This course teaches you to use the CARLa Auditing and Reporting programming language to create reports for RACF, SMF, UNIX Systems Services (USS), CICS, DB2, and RACF command generation. You also learn to use CARLa to create your own reports or commands, or modify existing zSecure RACF functions to fit with your installation's requirements. In addition, you will learn to automate these functions by using them in scheduled batch jobs. You also learn how to use CARLa to create your own reports, emails, CARLa programs, or commands. Also learn to modify existing zSecure RACF functions to fit with your installation's requirements. In addition, you will learn how to automate these functions with the use of scheduled batch jobs.

By attending IBM Security zSecure CARLa Auditing & Reporting Language workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Write CARLa programs that report RACF user and group profiles based on your selection criteria
  • Produce and run CARLa programs to list RACF data set and general resource profiles that are not available with IBM Security zSecure predefined report functions
  • Produce a CARLa program that generates RACF commands based on various selection criteria
  • Use two-pass CARLa to generate CARLa code with a CARLa program
  • Run CARLa programs in batch
  • Produce reports from SMF log records
  • Produce XML-formatted reports with CARLa
  • Use CARLa to produce custom CICS or DB2 audit reports

  • Basic knowledge of, and experience with, RACF
  • Familiarity with the IBM Security zSecure Admin or Audit ISPF panel interface

This IBM Security zSecure CARLa Auditing & Reporting Language class is suitable for security administrators, systems programmers, compliance officers, and auditors who want to create their own reports or generate automated RACF or USS commands with the IBM Security zSecure Auditing and Reporting Language (CARLa).
