z/OS Security Server RACF Messages and Codes
SA23-2291-00

ICH15034A
IF SYSTEMS FROM MULTIPLE SYSPLEXES USE THE DATABASE WITH MASTER DATASET DSNAME IN DATA SHARING MODE DATABASE CORRUPTION WILL RESULT. YOU ARE RVARYING INTO A DATA SHARING MODE ENVIRONMENT. OTHER IRRPLEX_ PROFILES EXIST, SUCH AS IRRPLEX_SYSPLEX-NAME IN CLASS CLASS-NAME. IF THE DATABASE IS NOT BEING USED BY ANOTHER SYSPLEX, THEN SPECIFY 'CONTINUE'. OTHERWISE SPECIFY 'CANCEL'.

Explanation

RVARY ACTIVE:

One or more IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profiles are found that are not for this sysplex. The RVARY command was issued and the system is changing to a data sharing mode environment. A system in data sharing mode cannot safely share a database with a system in another sysplex.

The ICH15041A WTOR is issued after this message to obtain a response.

Specify CONTINUE if:
  • you copied the database from an environment that shared the database with another sysplex, but which is no longer true for this environment.
  • the sysplex was renamed, and the old IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profile was detected.
  • one or more IRRPLEX_ profiles were manually altered or created incorrectly:
    • the profile name indicates a sysplex that is not sharing the database
  • an automated update of one or more IRRPLEX_ profiles failed.
Specify CANCEL if:
  • the profiles are correct, and you must not use the database in data sharing mode.

RVARY DATASHARE:

No response is expected. The ICH15041A WTOR is not issued after this message.

System action

RVARY ACTIVE:

The system waits for the reply of the operator.

RVARY DATASHARE:

RACF® does not process the command.

Operator response

RVARY ACTIVE:

Respond to the ICH15041A message or contact your system programmer.

RVARY DATASHARE:

Contact your system programmer.

System programmer response

RVARY ACTIVE:

If the identified database is being used by another system, which is in another sysplex, and this system is in data sharing mode, the database becomes corrupted. You must specify CANCEL to protect the database.

If the identified database is not being used in data sharing mode, specify CONTINUE. After the RVARY, use the RDELETE or RALTER command on the IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profiles as appropriate. The IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profile for this sysplex is updated automatically during the RVARY processing.

If the message indicates the backup database, and you did not receive this message for the primary database, then if the backup database is intended to be the same as the primary database, and you were able to specify ‘CONTINUE’ to this message, resynchronize the primary and the backup databases by using "IRRUT200 PARM=ACTIVATE".
Note: Ensure that the database you are using as the backup database is the correct database to be using with your primary database. The "IRRUT200 PARM=ACTIVATE" overlays all the data within the specified backup data set. See z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide for more information about IRRUT200.
If the problem persists, contact your IBM® support center.

Do not use RRSF to propagate the RDEFINE, RALTER, and RDELETE commands to other databases. If automatic command direction is enabled for the GXFACILI class, use the ONLYAT operand (on the RALTER, RDEFINE, and RDELETE commands) when you change IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profiles to prevent this propagation. ONLYAT must be used whether you are altering, creating, or deleting the class GXFACILI IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profiles on a local or remote node.

RVARY DATASHARE:

Refer to the RVARY ACTIVE system programmer response above.

If the GXFACILI IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profiles, which are not for this sysplex, are extraneous, delete them before reissuing the RVARY DATASHARE.

If the GXFACILI IRRPLEX_sysplex-name profiles are correct and this database is being used by another system, which is in another sysplex, the database becomes corrupted.

If this system must enter data sharing mode, stop sharing the database with systems in other sysplexes. Then delete the now extraneous profiles and reissue the RVARY DATASHARE command.
