If you use System Access Manager, turn off all exit points to prevent issues while saving the Assure Security library. This will also allow the points to be turned on easily once the library is installed on the target system. Run the following command:

VRYQXPNT PNT(*ALL) PNTTYPE(*ALL) STATUS(*OFF) UPDAUTOSTR(*YES)

After restoring the base Assure Security library, as per the above instructions, run the following command to start the System Access points:

VRYQXPNT PNT(*ALL) PNTTYPE(*ALL) STATUS(*AUTOSTART)

This will start the same points that were active on the original system.

Once the points are activated on the target system, some services and/or subsystems may need to be stopped and restarted in order for exit point programs to take effect. Performing a system IPL will stop and restart all services and subsystems. Alternatively, you can stop and restart individual services and subsystems based on what is needed. Follow these steps to identify the services that need to be restarted:
  1. Run the WRKQXPNT PNTTYPE(*EXIT) command to view all points.
  2. Use option 5 next to any point with an *ON status.
  3. Note the “IBM point” and reference it in the Detailed information on supported exit points section of the Assure Security System Access Manager User Guide. This will indicate the services and/or subsystems that need to be stopped and restarted.

Once Assure Security is restored to the target system, run the following commands to clear the logs on the target system:

  • CLRPFM FILE(SECOPS/EXLOG001)
  • CLRPFM FILE(SECOPS/FISTL001)
  • CLRPFM FILE(SECOPS/UPARC001)
