ZMFAPLA( IZUDFLT.ZOSMF.SOFTWARE_DEPLOYMENT.DATA.) ACC(CONTROL)  Does this matter if it created with a dot after DATA. or should it be without the dot DATA

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA Top Secret for z/OS

Resolution

TSS CREATE(IZUSVRGP) TYPE(GROUP) NAME('IZUSVRGP GROUP') DEPT(xxxxxx)
TSS ADD(IZUSVRGP) GID(xxxxx)

The IBM RACF doc for ZMFAPLA resource's  to convert to TSS usually look something like

Call RacfCmd "RDEFINE ZMFAPLA  IZUDFLT.ZOSMF.SOFTWARE_DEPLOYMENT.DATA..** UACC(NONE)"

So with TSS no need for the **, the dot means if there was a call for DATA1.**  it would fail

TSS PER(xxxx) ZMFAPLA(IZUDFLT.ZOSMF.SOFTWARE_DEPLOYMENT.DATA.) ACC(CONTROL) 

===> tss lis(rdt) resclass(zmfapla)
