I'm migrating to z/OS 1.6 from an OS/390 2.10 system where I had batch

receive an IEE345I MODIFY   AUTHORITY INVALID, FAILED BY MVS error using a
batch job which includes something like:

//CICSP1   COMMAND 'F CICSP1,''CEMT P SHUT IMM'''

No RACF messages are issued and even if they were, the OPERCMDS class for
MVS.MODIFY.JOB.** includes the group that the submitting userid belongs to
(list-of-groups is active).

What am I missing? What console or console group do I need to authorize to
issue MVS commands through batch?

It's not directly a RACF problem. If RACF OPERCMDS processing were causing the failure then
(a) you would see ICH408I messages and
(b) the IEE345I message would say "failed by RACF" rather than "failed by MVS".

It could be that your JES parms no longer allow commands from batch jobs, or that the OPERPARM segment for the user has the wrong authority level specified.
