I opened a PMR today, and learned that ALLOWUSERKEYCSA(NO) only stops one of 
the three User Key Common Storage uses that will cease to be available in z/OS 
vNext.  This is all that's available today on z/OS 2.2 and z/OS 2.3.

I was offered a PER SLIP that could stop the other two Common Storage uses 
(after OA53355) - User Key Scope=Common Data Spaces and User Key ESQA key 
changes, which are the other two bit flags in the SMF30_RAXFLAGS byte.  I don't 
think a PER trap is appropriate for long term use on a production system - I 
just want the option to stop all of these uses of User Key storage now - before 
z/OS vNext.

By the way, to stop the ability to create a user key CADS after OA53355, use 
the suggested PER SLIP and change A=TRACE to A=RECOVERY - or so I understand.
