Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All SA z/OS V3R4 and V3R5 customers.         *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In a multi TCP/IP-Stack environment,    *
    *                      ICH408I messages can be received,       *
    *                      indicating INSUFFICIENT ACCESS          *
    *                      AUTHORITY.                              *
    *                      This is the case when only the primary  *
    *                      IP stack should be used and the other   *
    *                      IP stacks are protected by RACF.        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    When trying to discover the hostname, SA z/OS should avoid
    ICH408I messages by honoring the 'primary IP stack' when
    possible.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • New REXX macro AOFC0261 has been created to use the SOCKET
    function in order to discover the hostname. This function
    honors the 'primary IP stack' in a multi TCP/IP-Stack
    environment.
    REXX parts INGRALRT, INGRXVPI and INGRYDLA have been modified
    to use new REXX macro AOFC0261.
