hi All,

am trying to execute some console commands thru REXX exec.
Am encountering the above mentioned error.
i have been provided with the necessary access(MASTER Authority) by the administrator.
the commnads which am trying to execute are:
-DB2A START DB2
-DB2A STOP DB2 ,where DB2A is the subsystem in one of the LPAR.

Here is the link about the description of the error:

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA2M771/SPTFF345I

Am using ACTIVATE CONSOLE & CONSOLE DEACTIVATE before and after issueing the commands, which changes the environment to console.

i.e "ACTIVATE CONSOLE"
ADDRESS CONSOLE "-DB2A STOP DB2"
"CONSOLE DEACTIVATE"
Can any one help me out in this regard.
Is it coz of DB2 is not configured on MGCRE macro to issue CONSID(XX)???

Do you have the RACF authority to execute CONSOLE commands ?

in this cases I usually trust more the MVS judgement
something is missing in the authorization chain

FAILED BY
MVS

The MVS console command authority was insufficient for this command. Either:

* no security product was active for this function, or

* a security product was active for this function, but it could not determine whether the command should be allowed or failed.


review with the proper people You authorizations

What is "access(MASTER Authority) "... it is not a RACF term that I am familiar with.

Could always try running the commands under SDSF - that usually does the trick

Does this mean that you are to walk to the console to enter these commands?

Are you in the computer operations department or some other department? Most departments (other than operations) do not have a console available (and seldom have permission to use an opeator console).

What is the explanation of the requirement that this be done on the actual console?

Please read the original post. She is trying to use the CONSOLE host command of rexx.

Can you describe the RACF setup that allows you to issue command?

Yup, i did. . .

Possibly mistakenly, i read this to be a modification to the original post:

I'm still confused why this must be done via "console" if it can be done via sdsf. . . icon_confused.gif
