Issue/Introduction

Running two different MUF regions (MUFT and MUFP) on a single LPAR. They are running fine.

If issuing a  "F MUFT,STATUS" command to the MUFT STC, it doesn't return any info.

If issuing a  "F MUFP,STATUS" command to the MUFP STC, it returns the expected results.

Environment

Release : any

Component : CA Datacom/AD, CA Datacom/DB

Cause

The user is not authorized to issue the STATUS command to the MUFT region, as outlined by this RACF message on MUFT joblog:

  FROM cxxname.* (G)                                                   
  ACCESS INTENT(READ   )  ACCESS ALLOWED(NONE   )
