Deactivating SETROPTS RACLIST processing

z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide
SA23-2289-00

If you have the SPECIAL attribute, you can deactivate SETROPTS RACLIST processing for general resource classes. To deactivate this option, issue SETROPTS NORACLIST(classname). RACF® processes classname and all classes that share the same POSIT value on their class descriptor table (CDT) entries.

You can also use SETROPTS NORACLIST to delete a data space created by a RACROUTE REQUEST=LIST,GLOBAL=YES command. Therefore, the command must operate on classes even though RACLIST=DISALLOWED is specified in the class descriptor table (CDT). If RACGLIST is active and RACGLIST classname_nnnnn profiles exist, RACF deletes them and keeps the base RACGLIST profile name. For more information, see The RACGLIST class and Using RACROUTE REQUEST=LIST,GLOBAL=YES support.
Note:
  1. You should issue a SETROPTS NORACLIST command for classes RACLISTed by RACROUTE REQUEST=LIST,GLOBAL=YES only after all classes that issued RACROUTE REQUEST=LIST,ENVIR=CREATE,GLOBAL=YES have given up their access to the RACLIST data space by issuing RACROUTE REQUEST=LIST,ENVIR=DELETE.
  2. If the system is enabled for sysplex communication and a command is successful on the system on which it was issued, RACF propagates the command to the other members of the data sharing group.
  3. If the command fails on any of the peer systems RACF does not back it out of the member systems.
  4. If the system is not enabled for sysplex communication, the command does not take effect on the other systems sharing the database until you issue it on those systems or the systems are IPLed.

NORACLIST is the default and is in effect for all eligible classes that are defined in the class descriptor table (CDT) when a RACF database is first initialized using IRRMIN00.

See z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide for more information about SETROPTS RACLIST processing.
