Saw your main in RACF-L as well. The answer is TSO logon exit. Have the user be aware to his numeric id, not more then six chars and prefix a character or assign another UID. I have a similar problem at a customer here who converted from VSE to MVS. Not a big problem., but I would keep a sync. Between the userid and the numeric value in RACF. Perhaps an other class that can hold a numeric value and a field that holds the userid.

Regards Mark **************************************************************************** ********************************************************************** Hi, I am in the middle of migrating a customer from ACF2 to RACF and have encountered a problem. ACF2 supports the use of fully numeric TSO Userids. The customer has an exit in place that forces all dataset allocations to be prefixed with a Alpha character, getting around the dataset issues. However, if I migrate them to RACF, TSO does NOT support a fully numeric Userid. I know this is not supported by IBM, but does anyone have any ideas (TSO exit?), that I can use to support fully numeric TSO Userids. The customer does not what to change the RACF Userids to start with an alpha character for business/application reasons. Any help gratefully received.
