Bypassing storage and management class authorization checking during RESTORE (OY65348)

For a logical RESTORE and a physical data set restore, storage class and management class authorization checking is normally conducted. This checking can be bypassed to let the storage administrator restore data sets that are protected by data set profiles whose RESOWNER field contains a user ID that has been revoked.

This function is affected by setting the flag at offset X'16' in ADRPATCH. The settings are listed below:

X'00': DFSMSdss functions normally and conducts authorization checking.
Any setting other than X'00': Authorization checking is bypassed.

To set the flag to on dynamically, use the SET PATCH command. To set the flag to on permanently, modify the sample JCL (see Sample JCL) as follows:

//SYSIN DD *
   NAME ADRDSSU ADRPATCH
   VER   16        00
   REP   16        FF
