Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Admin/Audit processing      *
    *                 z/OS UNIX files.                             *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Admin/Audit might incorrectly   *
    *                      allocate the same z/OS UNIX file in     *
    *                      cases where there are several ALLOCATE  *
    *                      statements that use the same value for  *
    *                      the TYPE argument but different PATHs   *
    *                      in the input CARLa script.              *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When the input CARLa script processed by zSecure Admin/Audit
    contains several ALLOCATE statements that refer the same TYPE
    but different PATHs for z/OS UNIX files, only one z/OS UNIX
    file is allocated (and processed) by all ALLOCATE statements.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Admin/Audit has been modified so that z/OS UNIX files
    allocations are properly performed.
