   This subset contains service recommendation information for z/VM
   VERSION 6, RELEASE 4 MODIFICATION 0 specific to the installation of

   listed in this subset.  Be sure to refer to the RSU subset that

   PTF service listed in this subset should be applied after the RSU
   tape has been loaded.

   recommended that the latest RSU and corresponding subset be use
   when applying new levels of service.

   latest RSU, you can search on HIPER and the applicable component
   identifiers (ie COMPONENT ID and RELEASE) to determine the
   recommended service that should be ordered.

General Information

This section contains general information, i.e. SYSGEN hints/tips. 1. 21/03/10 This RSU contains PTF UV61335 (APAR VM65930 ) which updates the RACF templates. When installing this RSU, the following message will be received during SERVICE command processing: VMFSRV1220W The RACF database templates must be updated. Follow the instructions in the RACF Security Server System Programmer's Guide. PTF UV61335 first shipped in March 2017. If you have service and, thus, have already run RACFCONV to update the RACF templates, message VMFSRV1220W received during the installation of this RSU can be ignored and RACFCONV does NOT need to be run again. To determine if PTF UV61335 (APAR VM65930) is already in production, please do the following prior to installing this RSU: From the MAINT640 userid, invoke the command SERVICE RACF STATUS VM65930 to query the status of APAR VM65930. If APAR VM65930 has already been put into production, you'll see message VMFSRV1226I similar to: VMFSRV1226I RECEIVED mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss VMFSRV1226I APPLIED mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss VMFSRV1226I BUILT mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss VMFSRV1226I PUT2PROD mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss systemid This message indicates PTF UV61335 is already in production, and, thus, the VMFSRV1220W message can be ignored and RACFCONF does NOT need to be run during the installation of this RSU. However, if APAR VM65930 has not already been put into production, you'll see message VMFSRV1227I: VMFSRV1227I VM65930 is not received or applied to RACF (6VMRAC40%RACF) This message indicates PTF UV61335 is not already in production, and, thus, the VMFSRV1220W message can NOT be ignored and RACFCONV must be run during the installation of this RSU. RACFCONV must be manually run between running SERVICE and PUT2PROD. Run the RACFCONV utility on the RACMAINT userid to update the primary and backup RACF database. If running in a multi member SSI environment, additional steps are provided in APAR VM65930: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1VM65930
