ACF2 ACF2 - z/OS ACF2 - MISC

Issue/Introduction

z/OSMF was setup on the ACF2 database that is shared between three lpars.  First system works fine.  Issued the REBUILD of the OMVS Profile records on the 2nd system, but fails with 

error: setuid 10000: EDC5164I SAF/RACF error. (errno2=0x0B880804) [preauth]
fatal: setresuid 10000: EDC5164I SAF/RACF error. (errno2=0x0B880804) [preauth]
error: FOTS3214 cleanup_exit: kill(33751256): EDC5139I Operation not permitted.

That points to the UID number not being found.  After deleting the id and re-inserting, then the REBUILD worked.  But the 3rd systems fails.  Why is a DELETE and re-INSERT needed?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

The other LPARS only need the F ACF2,OMVS command issued to rebuild the OMVS tables.  That is not needed on the system where the profile record is inserted.  An IPL would also work, but is not needed.
