HCPRPD001I REQUEST TO SET RACF® [ACTIVE | INACTIVE ] MADE BY uuuuuuuu

Explanation

A user who is logged on to the RACF service machine (indicated by uuuuuuuu in the message) issued the SETRACF command.

Operator response

If the request was to deactivate RACF, look for message HCPRPD002A, which will require a reply. Otherwise, no action is necessary.

HCPRPD002I REPLY YES TO ALLOW DEACTIVATION - ANYTHING ELSE WILL CANCEL REQUEST

Explanation

A user logged on to the RACF service machine issued the SETRACF command to deactivate RACF. (Message HCPRPD001I, which precedes this message, indicates which RACF service machine the request was issued from.)

The RACF service machine will not be able to run until you reply to this message. Therefore, all authorization requests that it receives, including LOGON, are delayed until you reply.

If you reply with “YES”, RACF is deactivated and ALL security will be based on CP directory processing.

Operator response

You should contact the security or operations managers, or both, immediately if a decision procedure is not in place. If a “YES” reply is appropriate, enter “YES” at the console. Any other reply you enter cancels the request and releases the RACF service machine indicated in the previous message. Do not respond to this message with a “YES” unless you have positively identified the person logged on to the user ID making the request.

HCPRPD003I DEACTIVATE REQUEST DENIED BY OPERATOR

Explanation

The operator responded to the deactivation request (message HCPRPD002A) with something other than YES.

User response

Call the operator or the security administrator, or both, and make arrangements to deactivate RACF.

HCPRPD004I VERIFICATION REQUIRED BY OPERATOR, PLEASE WAIT

Explanation

The system sends this message to the RACF service machine console when a user ID requests SETRACF INACTIVE. The operator has already received messages HCPRPD001I and HCPRPD002A prompting for a YES or NO reply.

User response

If you have not already contacted the operator to coordinate this request, do so immediately. The RACF service machine can do no other processing until the operator makes a reply.

HCPRPD005I DEACTIVATE REQUEST CANCELED

Explanation

The operator denied the request to deactivate RACF.

HCPRPD006I RACF DEACTIVATED

Explanation

The system issues this message when the operator responds with a “YES” to message HCPRPD002A. The system sends it to both the operator and the RACF service machine console.

Operator response

Monitor the situation closely. RACF should be reactivated as soon as possible. An operator response is not necessary but notification is made at the operator console when RACF is reactivated.

HCPRPD007I RACF DEACTIVATION WILL FORCE SERVER IPL ON SUBSEQUENT ACTIVATION

Explanation

A SETRACF INACTIVE command is being run on a system which is a member of an SSI cluster. If the RACF deactivation is approved, then when RACF is subsequently activated all the connected RACF servers running on the system will be re-IPLed.

Operator response

Look for message HCPRPD002A, A reply of YES will allow the RACF deactivation. Any other response will cancel the request.

HCPRPI035I CP/RACF communication path established to service machine serverid

Explanation

The RACF service machine (serverid) completed initialization and requested an IUCV connection with CP. CP accepted the request and established an IUCV path.

HCPRPI036E CP/RACF communication path broken to service machine serverid

Explanation

The IUCV path between the RACF service machine (serverid) and CP was severed.

Operator response

If this message is a result of normal operations (such as maintenance) no action is required. Otherwise, monitor the operator console. If the path is not reestablished automatically, initiate recovery procedures.

HCPRPI037I Entering authorization quiesce state for service machine serverid

Explanation

The RACF service machine (serverid) has received more authorization requests than it can handle at the time. CP delays sending further requests until the RACF service machine issues a RESUME to CP.

Operator response

Monitor the operator console. Message HCPRPI038I appears when the RACF service machine resumes the active state. If the message does not appear, contact system support to investigate the problem.

HCPRPI038I Returning to authorization active state for service machine serverid

Explanation

The RACF service machine (serverid) (also identified in previously issued message HCPRPI037I) has completed a sufficient number of authorization requests so that additional requests can be received. CP sends any pending authorization requests received while the RACF service machine was in the quiesce state.

Operator response

No action required.
