Can you please elaborate why you consider different APF lists in a sysplex a 
customer environmental problem?

Actually, how many installations really *need* identical setups on all systems 
in the plex because everything can run everywhere? I find the identical APF 
list more bothersome than having different ones:
- In our installation the products are just not set up to run on every system 
in the sysplex, and there is no need to run them everywhere. So defining 
not-needed APF-Authorizations is not considered a good thing here.
- In one sysplex they share the APF list, and we just migrated one of those 
systems to 1.8. I had a bloody row with my colleagues when the RACF sensitve 
resources health check hit exactly because APF-authorized datasets are still 
needed in the old release but not the new one, so they're not on the new 
sysres's, but the shared PROG-APF member still defines them. Talk about getting 
them to define a command member that removes those APF-Auths!

Thanks and regards, Barbara
