Issue/Introduction

Question:

All Security Administration ADD commands are now failing with TSS0252E KEYWORD NOT DISCERNIBLE - ADD

Answer:

If you define a FDT user defined field, for example that started with ADDR, this would cause the TSS0252E message.

You will need to issue the fully qualified ADDTO instead of just ADD.
