You need UPDATE access to IEASYMUP.symbolname in FACILITY. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Sean Gleann Sent: Monday, August 6, 2018 1:15 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: 'Previous Day' system symbols (was: how to calculate previous day using REXX) Very recently, I too went down the path of developing a REXX to figure out yesterday's date, and my solution pretty much matches ones that have been proposed in that mail-trail. However, I wanted to go further. Having created a working REXX, I want to then automatically run it on a daily basis to set suitably-named system symbols with new values each day, I've tracked down details regarding the IEASYMU2 program, but no matter what I do, the result is always RC288 (or '120'x). As far as I can see, this is caused by some sort of RACF restriction, but there's no diagnostic info appearing in the console log, so I don't know what to do to correct the situation. Has anyone successfully used this program & would be prepared to share their experience, please?
