Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

The  ACF01030 error message can be suppressed by defining GSO STC records. 

The GSO / STC record allows the assignment of a logonid different from the procname to a started task.

Another feature of this GSO /STC  record is that the new logonid associated with the started task does not have to have the STC bit, yet ACF2 will still allow it to be used. NOTE: this is the only time ACF2 makes an exception. 

For example, if the propagator's address space logonid is IDSTC1, a GSO STC record can be created that assigns the IDSTC1 lid to the IDSTC1 address space:             

ACF
SET CONTROL(GSO)                                                              
INSERT STC.IDSTC1 STCID(IDSTC1) LOGONID(IDSTC1)                             
F ACF2,REFRESH(STC)    

The above commands  assign the IDSTC1 logonid to the propagator's address space. As a result, the STC has a logonid record that does not contain the STC attribute,  and the message ACF01030 will not be generated.
