Re: Rexx to clone users in RACF

2023-11-28 Thread Peter
Thank you all I have a panel based solution where I can just mention only one user and one model user for cloning. So I was thinking to improve the solution by running in a batch by pointing to a PS file where I can populate all the panel details like USER NAME, NAME and MODEL USER and create any

"Asked to update" does not shed much light. I wouldn't bet that I'm allowed to look at the CBT tape files (the word bandied about is "contamination"), so I don't know what file 192 has. "Asked to update" in what way? A "general recovery routine" is highly unlikely to be overly useful. That is b

Are there updated versions of Jerry Ng's excellent presentations at SHARE? That would probably be a good starting point for the OP. I would assume that IBM would allow you to look at CBTTAPE files, even if they don't allow you to update them. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~sm

There is another case: The program calls a service routine pointed to by, e.g., the CVT. An ABEND in the service routine will not be at an address associated with the RB's CDE or LPDE, ut will be elsewhere in, e.g., the nucleus, LPA. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3 עַ

The scenario I'm referring to is where the published interface calls for pulling an entry address out of a control block and doesn't include an entry point name. In some cases the entry point is actually in the nucleus and there is nothing to LINK to. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.g
