Can ACF2 GSO RESWORD stored under SYSID(****) be used for multiple LPARs?

Products

• CA ACF2
• CA ACF2 - z/OS
• CA ACF2 - MISC

Issue/Introduction

Today there are separate RESWORD record setup for every LPAR in PROD, DEV and TEST. Will masking work on the RESWORD record? This way just one RESWORD record with SYSID(****) can be setup instead of SYSID(LPAR) and use that common record for all LPAR in PROD, DEV and TEST.

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

Yes, a site can create a GSO RESWORD record under SYSID(****) to be used by PROD, DEV and TEST LPARs in place of the GSO RESWORD records for each LPAR's SYSID.

Additional Information

Details on the ACF2 GSO RESWORD record can be found in section: "Reserved Word List (RESWORD)" of the ACF2 documentation.
