Figure 4 (Page 3 of 3). Changes to RACF Commands
Command Description Support
TARGET The new keyword WDSQUAL is added to the
RACF TARGET command to indicate that the
variable that follows will be used by RRSF as the
middle qualifier for the work space data set names
of the INMSG and OUTMSG queues for the local
RRSF node defined by the TARGET command.
WDSQUAL cannot be used for a remote node.
The format for the qualifier name is
prefix.wdsqual.ds_identity
.
wdsqual
can be from 1
to 8 characters long beginning with an alphabetic
character. Initial numerals are not accepted. The
formation of the workspace data set names can be
changed until the data sets are allocated. This
normally occurs when a DORMANT or OPERATIVE
keyword is processed. After that keyword is
processed, the data set names cannot be changed.
Concerning TARGET nodename OPERATIVE
WDSQUAL(xxx) , RACF processes the
OPERATIVE keyword after the WDQUAL keyword,
even though the user specified them in the reverse
order. The keyword WDSQUAL works until RACF
has processed a TARGET command specifying
DORMANT or OPERATIVE for that node.
This enhancement allows operators to set one or
more work space data sets for local node names,
which can be used when they are working with
multisystem RRSF nodes, especially in a sysplex
environment.
If you have any TARGET commands in your
IRROPTxx RACF parameter library member that
specify the WORKSPACE keyword abbreviated to a
W, you need to increase the length of that keyword
to at least WO so it is not mistaken for the new
WDSQUAL keyword which is now represented as
W.
If WDSQUAL is not specified, the previously used
format for the data set names is used. This is
prefix.sysname
.INMSG and
prefix.sysname
.OUTMSG.
