How can find out which RACF-ID is using the tables for the thier particular purp
ose?
When we got the error like this:
SQL0913N Unsuccessful execution caused by deadlock or timeout. Reason code "00C9
008E ".
Is it possible to send message via mainframes from one RACF ID to other?
If so what is the ISPF command for it?
By RACF ID do you mean the user-id used to log on?
Are you familiar with the "SEND" command in TSO? It allows you to send a text me
ssage to a TSO user - here's an example:
SEND ?SOME TEST? USER(theuserid) LOGON
The LOGON at the end says to send the message "now" if the specified user is log
ged on otherwise show the message when the userid does log on.
If i recall correctly, you can send the same message to multiple users using
Code:
SEND ?SOME TEXT? USER(uid1, uid2, uidn) LOGON
Also, if you include an asterisk '*' for the uid, the message will be sent to yo
u. If you don't specify a user, i believe the text will be sent to the system op
erator console - not acceptable at many sites.
Give the multiple id SEND a try and let me know if it works for you.
Keep in mind that from the command screen (=6) you can type SEND. From other com
mand lines, you'll need to key TSO SEND. The =6 screen also has more room to typ
e.
Re: RACF User ID Management Question

Once a userid has been deleted it's completely gone. RACF has no way to remember
the userid. Rather than delete userids, most sites REVOKE the IDs of the dearly
departed (or possibly the not so dearly departed). This way the data sets and R
ACF access profiles related to the users do not also have to be deleted.
Resource Access Control Facility or RACF provides the tools to manage user acces
s to critical resources. RACF is an add-on software product that provides basic
security for a mainframe system (examples of other security software packages in
clude ACF2 and Top Secret, both from Computer Associates).
RACF protects resources by granting access only to authorized users of the prote
cted resources. RACF retains information about users, resources, and access auth
orities in special structures called profiles in its database, and it refers to
these profiles when deciding which users should be permitted access to protected
system resources.
To help your installation accomplish access control, RACF provides the ability t
