Hello group,

Does anyone know of a method to resume a RACF revoked ID without having an SMF 
record be written?  

We produce a daily listing of RACF commands from our SMF type 80s (using 
RACFRW) and we list ADDUSER ADDGROUP ALTUSER ALTGROUP CONNECT DELUSER DELGROUP 
PASSWORD PERMIT RALTER RDEFINE REMOVE.  

We also produce a daily listing of our CICS user IDs and their RACF status.  On 
July 8 we had a user ID on our report that was listed as REVOKED and a 
LAST-ACCESS date and time of 07/17/07 17:01:28. 

On July 9, the report showed the ID was no longer revoked and the LAST-ACCESS 
reported as 07/08/13   19:24:14.  However, our SMF report listed no ALTUSER 
command or any other command against this ID.  (No DELUSER or ADDUSER, for 
instance).  

I dumped the SMF records for both July 7 and July 8 and ran a RACFRW to list 
all the records and there is no reference to this User ID.   

I'm a sysprog, so I can't blame it on magic or elves - I could try blaming it 
on the software, but I'm finding that hard to believe - so I have to think 
there's something I'm missing.  I've just looked at everything I know to look 
at.  (Did someone modify SMF for a period?  No.  Does the COBOL program that 
lists the RACF users have a bug in it?  No.)  

If anyone has a suggestion for what to look for, I'd appreciate hearing about 
it.   

Thanks,
Greg Shirey
