Issue/Introduction

Issue:

Is there any CA ACF2 option that can suppress the ACF99913 and ACF99900 security messages?

 

Description:

ACF2 has an option that controls the issuing of the ACF99913 and ACF99900 messages.

The GSO OPTS CONSOLE option controls the issuing of the ACF99900 and ACF99913 messages. If you specify NONE for this option then no ACF99913 or ACF99900 messages will be issued to the log. The SMF records are still produced.

Note that ACF99900 messages are not produced for any data set read accesses.

 

Resolution:

To suppress ACF99913 and ACF99900 messages, issue the following ACF commands:

ACF
set control(gso)
change opts console(none)

Note:  You need to issue the REFRESH command to activate this change:
           F ACF2,REFRESH(OPTS)

Other CONSOLE values are: NOROLL (the default), ROLL, or WTP

The "Maintaining GSO Records" chapter of the ACF2 Administrator Guide has detailed information on how to control these ACF2 security messages using the GSO OPTS CONSOLE option.
