Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Collect exploiting the * * program under z/OS V2R5 and users of zSecure * * Audit processing system data (CKFREEZE data * * set) generated by zSecure Collect. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Collect might issue a * * MSGCKF0000 while collecting JES2 * * information. Some reports generated by * * zSecure Audit might be unreliable or * * incomplete (including compliance * * controls). * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided and review the * * documentation update. * **************************************************************** When zSecure Collect processes JES2 information, it might issue a MSGCKF0000 which begins with the text "Control block xite omitted because of protection exception". As result, an incomplete PROCLIB, SUBMITLIB, and POLICYLIB data set concatenation information is written into a CKFREEZE so that reports like AS_DD (Address space DD names), SENSDSN (Sensitive Data Set Names), TRUSTED (Users that can bypass security), and some others where JES2 PROCLIB, SUBMITLIB, and/or POLICYLIB concatenation information is used) might be incomplete or not reliable. Some zSecure Audit's compliance controls might be affected as well.
Problem conclusion
zSecure Collect has been modified so that it correctly processes JES2 information and no MSGCKF0000 is issued. Please note the documentation changes as provided by the APAR tracking comment data.
