APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Starting in z/OS V1R13, IEBCOPY is no longer APF-authorized. It
does not need to be run from an authorized library, and calling
programs do not need to be APF-authorized.

Currently File Manager requires APF auth to run a load module
copy (it invokes IEBCOPY).  If IEBCOPY is not authorized,
message FMMBB025 is generated and the copy is not done.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All users of the DSC (Data Set Copy)         *
*                 function.                                    *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: MSGFMNBB025 is produced when attempting *
*                      a load module copy with File Manager    *
*                      running in batch mode on a z/OS 1.13    *
*                      or above level operating system.        *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
****************************************************************
IEBCOPY prior to z/OS 1.13 was required to be run from an
authorized program. With this restriction File Manager would
only perform a load module copy if it was running authorized or
under TSO batch. File Manager had not been changed to lift the
restriction for later levels of the operating system.

Problem conclusion

  • File Manager has been changed to call IEBCOPY directly if not
authorized for operating systems z/OS 1.13 and above.
