Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Admin/Audit exploiting the  *
    *                 'VERIFY PERMIT' function (either in CARLa    *
    *                 scripts or using interactive option AU.V).   *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Admin/Audit incorrectly         *
    *                      generates 'rdelete' and/or 'ralter'     *
    *                      commands for CICS transactions profiles *
    *                      covering CICS transactions belonging to *
    *                      CICS regions defined with a             *
    *                      'SECPRFX=<id>' configuration option.    *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When the 'VERIFY PERMIT' function offered by zSecure Audit/Admin
    is invoked with system data where CICS region(s) is (are)
    defined with a 'SECPRFX=<id>' configuration option, the program
    incorrectly generates 'rdelete' and/or 'ralter' commands for
    CICS transaction profiles in those regions. A (series of)
    MSGCKR0068 which begins with the text "Undefined id" and
    MSGCKR0261 which begins with the text "Key with unknown" is also
    displayed in the SYSPRINT data set.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Audit/Admin has been modified, so that it correctly
    processes CICS transaction profiles for CICS regions defined
    with a 'SECPRFX=<id>' option, and the 'VERIFY PERMIT' function
    generates correct commands.
