Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to automatically and dynamically elevating permissions on a mainframe system. Initially, a user may request an elevation class which corresponds to elevated class resources of the mainframe system. The elevation class may enable the user to perform actions to datasets, files, applications, or systems of the mainframe system the user may not otherwise be able to perform. If the user has permission to the elevation class, a user identification corresponding to the user and the elevation class is registered in an elevated permission structure. An access control environment element (ACEE) is dynamically created with the elevated permission structure and the elevated class resources of the elevation class are associated with the ACEE. The user can then be validated with access to the elevated class resources. At the expiration of a limited duration of time, the elevated class resources are automatically disassociated with the ACEE.
