Environment

Release : 16.0

Resolution

PTF SO05647 closed a condition in which the obsolete UNIXOPTS default DFTGROUP was being picked up, after applying the PTF any logonid that uses USS services will require an OMVS GROUP Profile Record assigned.

Problem resolved when client updated the logonid with their default GROUP(OMVSDGRP)
