Issue/Introduction

Issuing an INSERT or CHANGE command for a SAFDEF record results in the following error:

ACF00218 BUILD REQ PLIST ERROR ENCOUNTERED WHILE PROCESSING RACROUTE SCAN VALIDATION

 

Example command:

CHANGE SAFDEF.TEST RB(SVC026) MODE(GLOBAL) RACROUTE(REQUEST=AUTH,CLASS='DATASET',ENTITY=('TEST.ENTITY')) REP                    

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

The way the SAFDEF records are coded is slightly different than the way they are presented in a SHOW SAFDEF command. On the RACROUTE parameter, quotes and extra parenthesis are not needed and will cause the INSERT or CHANGE to fail.

Here the corrected command for the above example:

CHANGE SAFDEF.TEST RB(SVC026) MODE(GLOBAL) RACROUTE(REQUEST=AUTH,CLASS=DATASET,ENTITY=TEST.ENTITY) REP
