If there were a problem with accessing the RACF database volumes you would get messages from RACF to that effect, and a prompt to enter a different database name. Instead the OP got a message about the product not being registered, which is very specific to a problem with IFAPRDxx or to product registration processing. There is an MVS APAR related to issues with overlaid product registration information. I'm a bit surprised that this would have happened so early in the IPL sequence, but I suppose it's possible. It would be interesting to know if there were any RACF messages preceding the IRR418I, as that particular IRR418I message occurred during initialization of the optional RACF subsystem, which happens much later (in the overall scheme of MVS initialization) than RACF itself initializing. But I agree with another list member that it's most appropriate to open a PMR with IBM. -- Walt Farrell IBM STSM, z/OS Security Design ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
