Configuring zCX with ldap on z/OS (ITDS) with RACF and MFA support (2-parts session)

This presentation describes how we set up and configured a zOS LDAP server (IBM Tivoli Directory Server) for zOS Container Extensions (zCX) and other open source applications (DataPrivPass,…).

Docker and Open Source application/users should run transparently with zOS LDAP and leverage RACF authentication.

The Goals for our solution are to:

* Use zOS LDAP server with zOS Container Extensions (zCX) to provide centralized user/group management.

* Use zOS LDAP server with other Open Source applications within our zCX environments.

* Configure for RACF password/passphrase authentication

* Enable multifactor authentication
