Directing commands on the local node

If a request specifies that it is to be handled by the local node, it runs in the RACF® subsystem address space on the MVS™ system the request originates from.

Suppose you are USER2 on NODEC. To make RRSF operating in the RACF subsystem address space on NODEC process your LISTUSER request and run it from within the RACF address space, enter:

LISTUSER USER2 AT(NODEC.USER2)

This request makes RRSF start a subtask in the NODEC RACF subsystem address space for USER2 and invoke the LISTUSER command processor. The output is captured and put into a data set as described in Capturing command output.

If the target user ID on the local node is the same, no user ID association is needed. You only need a user ID association if the target user ID is different from the issuer's user ID when only one system is involved. Also, you need authority to the DIRECT.nodename RRSFDATA profile for the local node.
