Issue/Introduction:

We are changing the way we allocate OMVS segments in ACF2 for all users. I have created new groups today with new GID's. I know that I can change the default group via the ACF2 panels. I need to know how to change the UID for existing users in batch. Here is an example of what I use when I create a segment in batch:

Do I exchange INSERT for CHANGE? I am having trouble finding this on your site. Please advise.

Environment:

Release : 16.0

Component : CA ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution:

When going to change the OMVS user profile use the CHANGE command. Make sure to rebuild the user profile OMVS records as well. The command to rebuild is:

F ACF2,REBUILD(USR),CLASS(P),DIVISION(OMVS)

Once the rebuild is completed, it activates the changes to the profile. However, this will only affect users after they logon.
