Refer to the following reports produced by the TSS Data Collection:
- TSSCMDS.RPT(FACLIST) - Preferred report containing all control option values in effect including default values.
- TSSCMDS.RPT(TSSPRMFL) - Alternate report containing only control option values explicitly coded at TSS startup.
If the Quest NC-Pass Facility Matrix table is defined as stated below, this is not a finding.

Fix Text (F-27285r1146105_fix)
The ISSO working with the systems programmer will ensure the Facility Matrix Table for Quest NC-Pass is proper defined using the following example:
*****NCPASS
FAC(USERxx=NAME=NCPASS,PGM=NCS,ID=nn,ACTIVE,NOASUBM)
FAC(NCPASS=LUMSG,STMSG,NORNDPW,WARNPW,MODE=FAIL)
FAC(NCPASS=LOG(SMF,INIT,MSG,SEC9),UIDACID=8,LOCKTIME=000)
