Important information for users of non-IBM security products

Z Data Tools issues a RACROUTE TYPE=AUTH for the required profile, and if the required profile is not defined, RACF® returns RC=4. If RC=4 is returned, Z Data Tools issues a RACROUTE for FILEM.OTHER.ALL. If a higher return code is returned, no RACROUTE is issued for FILEM.OTHER.ALL and the access request fails immediately.

You should be aware that not all non-IBM security products issue RC=4 when a RACROUTE TYPE=AUTH for a profile fails; in this case no RACROUTE is issued for FILEM.OTHER.ALL and the access request fails immediately. If this applies to your security product, you will have to provide individual profiles for all Z Data Tools functions listed in Z Data Tools functions protected by FILEM.OTHER.ALL.
