Cannot Add Acid PROMPT to the Default STC entry.

Issue/Introduction

 

I can't add acid prompt to the default STC acid with TSS command: TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(DEF) ACID(PROMPT)

 

The CA Top Secret command is successful, but the DEFAULT entry within the STC record is not changed! 

Environment

z/OS

Resolution

 

To have the DEFAULT entry changed you must use the following syntax:

 

TSS ADD(STC) PROCNAME(DEFAULT) ACID(PROMPT)

 

DEFAULT is the reserved keyword to change the default entry within the STC record.

Using DEF you will add the following entry what is not what it is expected:

Default entry is not changed:

STC        = *DEF*     ACID       = *BYPASS*

and new entry is added:

STC        = DEF       ACID       = *PROMPT*
