Thanks to all. The "problem" was, indeed, a GLOBAL DATASET entry for '&RACUID.**'/ALTER
By way of explanation as to why our backups fail on this condition: We are using FDR for our nightly backups. We have the system option ALLCALL set to yes but do not have the DASDVOL class active in RACF. Therefore, FDR is getting stopped in it's tracks during the FDRFLASH portion of our backup process. Our data security admin is looking into the most appropriate way to resolve this. In the meantime, he has done an audit of all TSO userids and verified that dataset profiles exist for each. Thanks again to the list for the assistance.
