Issue/Introduction

Description:

No matter what PHRASE length and value that CRNTPHRL is populated with, this RACROUTE call always returns with RC=0.

Solution:

RACROUTE REQUEST=VERIFY always returns RC=0 on an PHRASE value after a successful PHRASE REPLACE operation.

Here is the example of RACROUTE call:

     RACROUTE REQUEST=VERIFY,
          ENVIR=CREATE,
          PASSCHK=YES,
          PHRASE =CRNTPHRL,
          USERID=USERIDL,
          ACEE=ACEEADDR,
          RELEASE=7730,
          MSGRTRN=YES,
          MSGSP=1,
          MSGSUPP=YES,
          WORKA=RACWORK,MF=(E,ROUTWRK)

The problem doesn't come from the RACROUTE itself. It comes from the fact that NOWARNPW has been set for the CA Top Secret FACILITY, where the RACROUTE was issued.

TSS MODIFY(FAC(facility=WARNPW)) needs to be set when running in WARN Mode.

Note: Please double check to make sure that the acid or FACILITY is not running in DORM mode.
