The details of all IDs and names defined for the LPAR should be available in a table or a dataset. For my shop, it is available in dataset TSS.ACIDS (not sure if this is unique to my MF). If this dataset is not there, you can check for TSS.*.

Regards,
Bharani.

My experience shows that you may only be able to TSO LU your own ID and no one else's.

Hi Superk,

Listing of Id depends on the attribute your Id's has... i.e the level of authorization. If you have special access with class Auth none or Auditor with class Auth as User you will be able to list the Id's.

Correct me If I am wrong.

Thanks.
