Commands that are propagated for RACF sysplex communication

When RACF is enabled for sysplex communication, it propagates RVARY and SETROPTS commands (except RVARY LIST and SETROPTS LIST) to the other members of the RACF® data sharing group.

Most SETROPTS options are propagated by updating the ICB, which is shared by all members of the RACF data sharing group. The following options are exceptions, and are propagated by way of XCF messaging services to the other members of the sysplex:

RACLIST
RACLIST REFRESH
NORACLIST
GENERIC REFRESH
GLOBAL
GLOBAL REFRESH
WHEN (PROGRAM)
WHEN (PROGRAM) REFRESH

The RACF data sharing group member on which a propagated command is issued is referred to as the coordinator. This member coordinates the propagation of the command to the other members.
