Environment
Release : 16.0
Component : CA Top Secret for z/OS
Resolution
The 8/8/4 with getGMAP: The getGMAP is used to map a GID to a GROUP. In this case, the getGMAP is looking for a GID(9010) and not GID(9003). See below.
Failed - GID not defined or group not defined as OpenMVS group GID value: 9010 Map name: Search by GID, return groupname According to the above there is no GROUP with a GID(9010).
getGMAPs with a non-zero RC may not necessarily be a problem. A look up was being done by the application and a GROUP with a GID(9010) wasn’t found. It would only be a problem if your application requires a GROUP to be defined with a GID(9010).
