OA63471: WHEN AN ALLOC STATEMENT HAS TYPE=RACF, BUT THE DATA SET INDICATED IS A RACF UNLOAD, AN ABEND0C1 OCCURS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Customer is attempting to run a CARLa process with the ALLOC
  TYPE=RACF statement but the DSN specified is a RACF UNLOAD.  An
  ABEND0C1 is the result.
  

Local fix

• Specify TYPE=UNLOAD when a RACF UNLOAD DSN is specified.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of zSecure exploiting explicit     *
  *                 allocation mode for RACF database.           *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure main processing component       *
  *                      (CKRCARLA) might ABEND0C1 in cases      *
  *                      where a type RACF input allocation      *
  *                      refers to a non-RACF DB data set.       *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided and review the        *
  *                 documentation update.                        *
  ****************************************************************
  When input data set allocation specifies type RACF but the
  actual data set reference (DSN/DD parameter of the ALLOCATE
  CARLa statement or the UI data set name field) points to a
  non-RACF DB data set (for example to an UNLOAD file), the
  zSecure main processing component (CKRCARLA) might ABEND0C1.
  

Problem conclusion

• zSecure main processing component (CKRCARLA) has been modified
  so that it performs additional checks against RACF DB
  allocations. Please note the documentation updates as provided
  by the APAR tracking comment data.
