Finding out what NetView information RACF has about you

Your user profile might contain NetView® information about you. The details RACF® lists from the NetView segment of the user profile are:
  • Command or command list to be processed at logon (IC)
  • MCS extended console name (CONSNAME)
  • Type of security check (CTL)
  • Whether unsolicited messages are received (MSGRECVR)
  • Scope classes (OPCLASS)
  • NetView programs in another NetView domain for which operator has authority (DOMAINS)
  • Whether administrator authority is present for the NetView Graphic Monitor Facility (NGMFADMN)
  • NetView Graphic Monitor Facility view span options (NGMFVSPN)
Note: The RACF security administrator controls whether you can view all or some of the details of your NetView information.

The NetView information in the LISTUSER output has the following format:
