Resolution

RESCODE keyword is not valid for a TSS REPLACE(RDT) command.

Changing the RESCODE is a multi-step process.

To change the RESCODE:                                                 
   
1.    TSS REVOKE all PERMITs for that RESCLASS. TSS WHOHAS $$TEST(*) to get  list of PERMITs for that resource class.

       TSS REVOKE(xxxx) $$TEST(xxxxxxx)  

       for every PERMIT

2.    Remove all ownerships for that resource. 

      TSS WHOOWNS $$TEST(*)

      to get a list of ownerships for that resource class

     TSS REM(owningacid) $$TEST(xxxxx)

      for every ownership.

3.    Remove the resource class:

      TSS REM(RDT) RESCLASS($$TEST)

4.    Add the resource class back under the new RESCODE

      TSS ADD(RDT) RESCLASS($$TEST) RESCODE(new_rescode) ATTR(xxxxxxxxxxx) ACLST(xxxxx)

5.    Re-OWN and re-PERMIT back the resources, deleted previously using the TSS WHOHAS and TSS WHOOWNS displays gathered previously.
