KFJ00203E User requires write access to the zos_unix_path_parameter directory path

Edit online

Explanation

The user who runs the job that performs the GENERATE action must be able to write to the z/OS® UNIX® System Services directory specified in the parameter, where zos_unix_path_parameter is RTE_USS_RTEDIR or TRG_COPY_TKANJAR_PATH, and path is the directory path.

The RTE_USS_RTEDIR parameter specifies the path of the z/OS UNIX directory where the GENERATE action writes runtime members.

The TRG_COPY_TKANJAR_PATH parameter specifies the path of the z/OS UNIX directory where the GENERATE action with option TRGCOPY copies SMP/E installation files.

System action

The GENERATE action stops before generating runtime members.

User response

Follow your local site practices to grant the user write access to the directory.

For example, set the directory permissions to 775. The following z/OS UNIX shell command sequence (requires superuser for chmod) recursively sets the permissions of /var/rtehome and its descendants:

echo chmod -R 775 /var/rtehome | su
