Issue/Introduction

We have a user defined privilege defined in ACF2 as USERPRIV and we want to change the name to CAPRIV.

What do I need to do for changing this name?  Do I need to IPL afterwards?

Environment

Release:
Component: ACF2MS

Resolution

   All of the definitions for ACF2 are in the ACFFDR, including the logonid definitions.  Your usermod UM99901 will have the user defined definitions.  For example, the old definition may be this:

@CFDE USERPRIV,lidflag,BIT,BITMAP=bitflag,LIST=ALL, X 

ALTER=SECURITY,FLAGS=NULL,GROUP=n,ZERO=YES

 

If you only change the label name from USERPRIV to CAPRIV, that will not effect the data on the database at all.  To re-apply the usermod, run member FDRJXB in the ACF2 sample JCL library, issue: 

F LLA,REFRESH

at a console, followed by 

F ACF2,NEWMOD(ACFFDR)
