Your profile is in WARNING mode. This is a "known problem" with WARNING mode on a dataset profile which covers a catalog. The reason is that DFSMSdfp attempts various access modes (even if not really required) and takes some different paths if the access is allowed or not. That is, even if READ access is all that is needed, DFSMSdfp will first attempt an ALTER. As an example, I think this is because DFSMSdfp will allow a person to DELETE a dataset if they have ALTER access to the catalog, even if they do not have ALTER access to the dataset itself. I.e. ALTER acces to the catalog "trumps" lack of ALTER access to the dataset. This will "go away" when you take the profile out of WARNING mode. There is no fix. This is a WAD (or BAD as the case may be). -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
