If the class was not active

When you define new RACF resources to protect Db2 objects, you must ensure that the new resource definitions become effective.

About this task

In a class that was not active at Db2 startup time, you must stop the Db2 subsystem, activate the class, and then restart the Db2 subsystem. Restarting the Db2 subsystem reads the new profiles into storage and allows the new resource definitions to become effective.

Example

From the MVS console, issue the following command:

–STOP DB2

Issue the following RACF commands:

SETROPTS CLASSACT(classname)

From the MVS console, issue the following command:

–START DB2
