Issue/Introduction

On the security statement in the CA 7 initialization deck,  you specified SUBUID=(OWNER,CA7). This should cause CA 7 to insert the userid based on the hierarchy specified. It should insert the OWNER if defined on job definition and next insert the id assigned to the CA 7 started task. But, CA 7 is not inserting any id. What could cause this behavior?

Environment

WA CA 7 Edition

Resolution

You can only use SUBUID if you are using external security for at least logon verification. This mean the security statement must have EXTERNAL=LOGON coded.

Examples:

The below statement indicates "NO" external security and therefore the SUBUID option is not active

SECURITY,NAME=SASSSECx,SUBUID=(OWNER,CA7) 


The below statement indicates external security is enabled for logon verification and also the SUBUID option is enabled.

SECURITY,NAME=SASSSECx,EXTERNAL=LOGON,SUBUID=(OWNER,CA7)
