Why was there a security violation for OPS before the recycle and not after?
Changing the EUID, using SuperUser authority, is designed to be a temporary exercise.
From IBM documentation on switching in and out of superuser authority:
. This activity should not be done in a multiprocess address space (which is what OPSMAIN is).
. Also, there is a 'rotation' of UID values when switching between the UID, the effective UID (EUID), and the real UID.
. This is why the UserID of the ASID in which this occurs does not change upon the first switch of a UID.
. If superuser authority is needed in a piece of automation, the switch/change should be done in an OSF/USS server ASID (to isolate OPSMAIN).
. If switching/changing the UID/EUID, the change should be reverted to what the values were before the change was needed, in the same piece of executing code.

Switching in and out of superuser authority
The client will find all occurrences of this changing/switching of the UID in their automation, and ensure that the UID is changed back to the necessary value and/or move the automation, so that the code is not executing in the OPSMAIN ASID.
