Yes, UID was defined to RACF and I am able to display like below.

OMVS INFORMATION
----------------
UID= 0000012345
HOME= /u/venkatg
PROGRAM= /bin/sh
CPUTIMEMAX= NONE
ASSIZEMAX= NONE
FILEPROCMAX= NONE
PROCUSERMAX= NONE
THREADSMAX= NONE
MMAPAREAMAX= NONE

so, are we still not clear about the output of WHOAMI and ID command.
