Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Alert 1506 (Global Access Checking table has been changed) is
  configured for SMF Type 90 records, but uses a select which
  is only relevant to SMF type 80 records, meaning no alert
  is triggered.
  
  Alert skeleton C2PS1506 shows
  
  
  000039 )IM C2PSGNEW
  000040  select event=(RDEFINE,RALTER,RDELETE) likelist=recent
  class=GLOBAL
  000041 )CM EMAIL sortlist
  
  There are none of these events in a Type 90 record.
  Consequently, the alert will never be triggered.
