I keep getting this RACF message at irregular intervals, I've tried to correlate the times that it happens with the times in the ISPF log, but there are no indications as to the why:

Code:
16.31.26 TSU08019  ICH408I USER(TDPTRO  ) GROUP(DVLPP   ) NAME(PRINS_ROBERT        )  526
   526               CL(PROCESS )
   526               OMVS SEGMENT NOT DEFINED


The "526" is just one of the numbers occurring, I've seen many others, a wild guess might be that they are milliseconds?

Any clues, other than the obvious, "OMVS SEGMENT NOT DEFINED"?

Hi Robert!
IIRC the "526"(*) should the identifier(continuation token) for multiline messages

(*) a varying number

It turns out that this message is generated if you use BPXWDYN without a defined OMVS segment.

Actually, more than just BPXWDYN will generate the message -- any BPX process pretty much will get the message if the RACF user id does not have a valid OMVS segment defined.
