Issue/Introduction

When trying to convert from SNA to TCP/IP for DB2 DRDA access the message ACF01030 LOGONID xxxxxxx HAS THE STC ATTRIBUTE AND CANNOT BE USED FOR NORMAL ACCESS is seen. This occurs when using the DB2 DRDA connection to do loads from one DB2 subsystem to another.    

Resolution

To address the ACF01030 message, define a GSO STC record for the propagator tasks to assign the task its own logonid and remove the STC attribute from the logonid. The GSO STC record allows a logonid (without the STC privilege) to be used as a started task.

For example if the propagator's address space logonid is D2PROP you can create a GSO STC record that assigns the D2PROP lid to the D2PROP address space:             

SET CONTROL(GSO)                                                              
INSERT STC.DRDA STCID(D2PROP) LOGONID(D2PROP)  
F ACF2,REFRESH(STC)                                                                                                            

The STC attribute can be removed from the D2PROP logonid:

SET LID
CHA D2PROP NOSTC
