RU359E YOU LACK AUTHORITY FOR HIGHLIGHTED LINE COMMANDS

Products

• RC/Update for DB2 for z/OS

Issue/Introduction

Editing a table in RC/Update for Db2 for z/OS (RCU) results in a RU359E error message. The text of the message is as follows:
RU359E YOU LACK AUTHORITY FOR HIGHLIGHTED LINE COMMANDS. ENTER 'RESET'.

Resolution

This occurs because Perform Authorization Checking in the RC/Update Profile is set to 'Y'.
The 'Y' indicates to restrict authorization checking to the Primary ID (foregoing the secondary).
Using a 'N' in the field allows for Secondary Authorizations to be utilized.
Setting the field to 'N' will resolve the problem when the necessary Secondary Authority is in place.
