APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When displaying the profile in zSecure the column right after
    "When" only displays the first 10 chars of the profile you put
    inside the WHEN (SERVAUTH()) keywords.
    
    Further when overtyping anything on this line the full profile
    namethat would be inside the WHEN clause is truncated.
    

Local fix

  • This issue can be circumvented by placing an S next to the User
    ID you wish to change The resulting panel has the full field
    lengths available for update and correctly generates the RACF
    commands
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Admin processing ACLs in    *
    *                 interactive mode.                            *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Admin might generate truncated  *
    *                      RACF commands after ACL updates.        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    If the conditional WHEN RESOURCE/PROFILE part of an ACL is
    modified and the actual length of the clause exceeds the display
    width, zSecure Admin might generate truncated RACF commands.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Admin has been modified so that it does not allow the
    ACL field modification on the profile detail display in cases
    where the ACL field length exceeds the width of the display part
    used to show that field. The field modification can be performed
    using the 'Modify permit' panel (C2RP3RPM) activated by the 'S'
    action character. No truncated RACF commands are generated.
