Issue/Introduction:

Access to APPC fails with: ======================================================================================== 27/03/18 16:30:20 XMVS *MISSING APPC APW ATBFMFPE *1C*-03 INI *MISSING 27/03/18 16:30:20 XMVS *MISSING APPC APW ATBFMFPE *08*-07 INI ** UNDEFINED ACID ** ========================================================================================

Environment:

Release:
Component: TSSMVS

Resolution:

VTAM member changed from:
=====================================
VBUILD TYPE=APPL
NPFIRCO APPL ACBNAME=NPFIRCO,
APPC=YES,
...
SECACPT=CONV,
=====================================
...to:
=====================================
VBUILD TYPE=APPL
NPFIRCO APPL ACBNAME=NPFIRCO,
APPC=YES,
...
SECACPT=ALREADYV,
=====================================
...as per IBM information: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.istrdr0/appsec.htm ======================================================================================SECACPT=CONV - Specifies that this logical unit supports conversation requests containing access security subfields. SECACPT=ALREADYV - Specifies that this logical unit supports conversation requests containing access security subfields. The logical unit also accepts the already-verified indications that it receives in conversation requests from partner LUs. ====================================================================================== ...also, in TSSMVS:
1.) Define the ACID 'APPC', making sure it has both Facilities, 'STC' and 'APPC'.
