>I agree with you about this type of "harmless" testing of authority to access. However, given the god-like authority of auditors these days, maybe it would be more helpful to you (and easier to get past the auditors) to have an additional parameter to RACROUTE which said, in effect, "Don't tell me about any violations. I don't care if you record the attempted access in SMF, but don't bother telling me about it."
I.E., suppress the message but go ahead and cut a record if you want to. > You can supress the ICH408I message is you wish with MSGSUPP=YES in the RACROUTE=AUTH call and you can supress the message and SMF logging with LOG=NONE. My .02 cents worth.
