ACF2 - z/OS ACF2 ACF2 - MISC

Issue/Introduction

Instructions in ACF2 to create a UUCP user and UUCPG group based on the following RACF commands:

ADDGROUP UUCPG OMVS(GID(8765))                                                               
ADDUSER UUCP DFLTGRP(UUCPG) +                                                              
OMVS(UID(396) HOME('/usr/spool/uucppublic') +                                               
PROGRAM('/bin/sh'))    

 

 

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

All commands listed can be done through TSO ACF or ACFBATCH. If running the commands in batch, be sure to specify CAPS OFF as the HOME and PROGRAM parameters are case sensitive.

To verify if the user exists:
SET LID
LIST UUCP

To create the user, group, and assign the user to the group:
SET P(GROUP) DIV(OMVS)
INSERT UUCPG GID(gid)
SET LID
INSERT UUCP STC UID(uid) GROUP(UUCPG) -
HOME('/usr/spool/uucppublic') PROGRAM('/bin/sh')
F ACF2,REBUILD(USR),CLASS(P)
F ACF2,REBUILD(GRP),CLASS(P)
F ACF2,OMVS(GID)

Change gid and uid according to site needs. They must not be 0.
