TMSH0171E

RACF External Security is active and CA 1 external security option is set to YES, but resource class CA@MD resource class has not been defined.

Reason:

When you set the CA 1 external security option to YES, you are requesting the external security system to control access to tapes and commands. In order for the external security system to allow use of commands by the user in the CA 1 ISPF panels, define the CA@MD resource class. Then grant individual users access to resources within that class.

Action:

This message is issued by the CA 1 Health Check component, which provides extensive detail on the encountered problem and the suggested response. The following actions and responses are documented for this check:

System Action: If UNDEF=FAIL, end users are not allowed to issue CA 1 online commands.

Operator Response: Notify the security administrator.

System Programmer Response: Have the security administrator define the CA@MD resource class. Have the security administrator review the CA 1 Programming Guide for details on setting up the security environment.

Problem Determination: If the CMD option is enabled, it is required that the CA@MD resource class is active.
