Issue/Introduction

We have installed the IBM MFA 130 software on an ACF2 system and are receiving the following error when attempting to define the STC using AZFEXEC:

No Factor-wide Data - You are unable to read the factor-wide data
SAF RC=0x8, RACF RC=0xc, RACF Reason=0x4

AZFM106
Either the factor is not defined to RACF or you do not have permission to access it.

Explanation: The associated factor profile in the MFADEF class must be defined and take the name FACTOR.Factor-name.
The profile IRR.RFACTOR.MFADEF.Factor-name must be defined in the FACILITY class and you must have appropriate
access to this profile for the operation you are trying to perform.

User Response: Contact your security administrator.

 

Environment

IBM MFA / ACF2

Resolution

Verify that a CONTROL(FACTOR) record called AZFSTC has been inserted and ACTIVE.
If missing insert one:
ACF
SET C(FAC)
INSERT AZFSTC ACTIVE
END

Refresh Facility record,
F ACF2,REFRESH(FAC),T(FAC)

Once this is activated, try the AZFEXEC clist again.
