DFS3525E IMS COULD NOT REGISTER WITH ENF FOR RACF® EVENT NOTIFICATION, RC=ret_code.

Explanation

During IMS initialization, IMS attempted to register with the z/OS® event notification facility (ENF) to listen for notifications of changes to the OTMA security definitions in RACF, but the attempt to register failed. IMS registers with ENF so that the OTMA cached ACEEs can be automatically refreshed when changes to the RACF definitions occur.

In the message text:
ret_code
The ENFREQ return code that is received from z/OS. The z/OS ENFREQ macro is used by z/OS subsystems to register with ENF.

System action

Initialization continues, but OTMA cached ACEEs will not be refreshed automatically when changes are made to their corresponding RACF definitions.

System programmer response

Look up the ENFREQ return code in z/OS MVS Programming: Authorized Assembler Services Reference Vol 2.
