Recently, I ran a zSecure Audit MVS Tables status scan and one of its
findings was the following:

The output format is probably getting messed up a little by all the
reformatting done before this posting hits the discussion list but I
hope you'll still get the point.
My question now is, and maybe Ed Jaffe can take a look at that, what is
this SVC doing that it gets such bad press from zSecure? I neither have
the source code of this SVC nor am I among the chosen few who can judge
the security and integrity of SVCs and other authorized code. However,
we need to know if there is an issue here.
