Explanation

Due to a bug in TSS and ACF2, Developer for z/OS® cannot generate a PassTicket when 64-bit Java™ is used, and the call ends with SafRc=8, racfRc=8, racfRsn=4 (Invalid parameter list). The following PTFs resolve this issue:
  • CA TSS R14.0 PTF RO31780
  • CA TSS R15.0 PTF RO30836
  • CA ACF2 R14.0 PTF RO31548
  • CA ACF2 R15.0 PTF RO30898
