Hi,
As far as I can recall from the top of my head, without having access to the
code, the RAC command writes the racf output to the RACF DATA A file and
then, when not disabled, does a TYPE to display the racf output.
What I normally do to process racf data, is the following:

Hi all,
Issue 'RACF LU user' command will create RACF DATA file on 191 A disk by

Is there any way to perform the command but would not generate RACF DATA

or create RACF DATA file on other disk (B , C ... or temporary disk) not 191
A disk?
Thank you very much.

Also take a look at the RACOUTP EXEC on the Y disk. When you use the

If your main concern is impact on users and you have a speedy link between
