Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Admin/Audit processing      *
    *                 queries via batch jobs generated by the      *
    *                 user interface while running multiple        *
    *                 instances of the program under one TSO       *
    *                 session (using ISPF in a split-screen or     *
    *                 multi-window mode).                          *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Admin/Audit might issue a       *
    *                      MSGIKJ56247I followed by a 'File        *
    *                      tailoring error' message displayed by   *
    *                      the user interface.                     *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When multiple instances of zSecure Admin/Audit are running under
    one TSO session using ISPF in a split-screen or multi-window
    mode, all program instances share the same DD name used for
    batch jobs generated by the program resulting in a MSGIKJ56247I
    which begins with the text "FILE ISPFILE NOT FREED..." followed
    by a 'File tailoring error' message issued by the program user
    interface.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Admin/Audit has been modified, so that multiple program
    instances running under one TSO session (using ISPF in a
    split-screen or multi-window mode) properly manage data set
    allocations, so that no IKJ56247I/'File tailoring error'
    messages are displayed while performing queries via batch jobs
    generated by the program user interface.
