Issue/Introduction

On some Netmaster regions, when a user issues a shortcut command, e.g. /PARMS,  the following error message is displayed:

CM0008 "/PARMS" is an invalid SHORTCUT

There are some PTFs related to this error message ( RO96708 and RO96710 for 12.2), but they are already applied.

Cause

The Netmaster regions cannot open TESTEXEC dataset due to the ESM (External Security Manager) rules.

 

For example, ACF2 returned the following errors:

ACF99913 ACF2 VIOLATION-00,00,lid,volume,hlq.netmast.TESTEXEC,N/A

ACF90913  -DATASET CANNOT BE OPENED; AUTHORIZATION IS REQUIRED.

 

Resolution

Authorize the Netmaster region to access the TESTEXEC dataset.
