This is a server type that provides a run-time environment for COBOL programs running as services. MTO in brackets after MFES indicates that the server has Mainframe Transaction Option (MTO) enabled.

Where it is using its own security settings, the security managers in its security manager list are displayed.

Stop processes as

This specifies the operating system account used to stop the Enterprise Server processes. You can choose to use the currently logged-on user (that is, the user account under which Directory Server is running), or you can specify the username and password for an alternative user.

Use Enterprise Server credentials of

When an enterprise server stops, it connects to Directory Server to update status information. To do this, it requires Directory Server user credentials (that is, credentials that Directory Server will verify and authorize). In order to update the Directory Server information, this user must be granted modify permission on the appropriate enterprise server resource within Directory Server.

The process of stopping the server also requires user credentials that the enterprise server will verify and authorize. In order to run the command used to stop the enterprise server, the user must have Alter permissions on the casstop resource within the OPERCMDS resource class.

It is important to note that the enterprise server is a separate security domain from the Directory Server. For example, it may be using different security configuration and different security managers.

You can specify that startup should use built-in default users or the credentials with which you are currently logged on to Enterprise Server Administration. Alternatively, you can specify a different username and password.

If you use the currently logged on user, or specify alternative user credentials, you must ensure that the user is present in both the Directory Server and the enterprise server security domains. Within the Directory Server domain, the user must have modify permission on the appropriate enterprise server resource within the Servers resource class. Within the enterprise server security domain, the user must have alter permissions on the casstop resource within the OPERCMDS resource class.
