Issue/Introduction

Can multiple acids share the same OMVS segment UID in Top Secret?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA Top Secret for z/OS

Resolution

The UID identifies a user in Unix System Services (USS) like an acid name under z/OS.

Therefore, each UID must be unique and sharing a UID is not allowed in Top Secret.
