Issue/Introduction

When running TSSUTIL on system-X using the Top Secret Audit Tracking File as input from system-Y, audit entries for ACIDs not defined to Top Secret on system-X receive the following message:

'TSS8007E ACCESSOR ID UNKNOWN'.

The ACID is defined to Top Secret on system-Y.

Example TSSUTIL input statement:

REPORT ACID(Unknown_Locally) EVENT(ALL) END

The same job runs fine on system Y with no TSS8007E messages.

Resolution

When specifying a TSSUTIL input parameter like DEPT or ACID, the DEPT or ACID will be verified to see if it exists on the system where TSSUTIL is running.

If it does not exist, the TSS8007E will be received. If you want to report on only that ACID, TSSUTIL must run on the system where that ACID is defined.

This is working as designed.

The following will work on either, since not DEPT or ACID is specified:

REPORT EVENT(ALL) END
