Glenn, Good idea. I will ask them the same thing you did. While it isn't something we need often, when you do need it, you really need it. Bill Johnson

I was encouraged after reading some information about a product called: "Tivoli zSecure Admin". According to its User Reference manual, "The Tivoli zSecure Admin RACF Offline function provides the possibility to issue most RACF commands against an inactive RACF database." I opened a question with CA on their support website just a couple of months ago asking if Topsecret has the same or similar 'offline' capability as the "Tivoli zSecure Admin RACF Offline" function. Their answer was no. I also asked if they were considering adding that 'offline' capability to Topsecret in a future release or future product or product add-on. Their answer was again no. Since you have a very similar requirement to mine, maybe if you open a question on CA's support site, they might reconsider their 'no' answer. Especially since my question on their support site was only a few months ago.
