Well this was easy. My security admin gave my production user the same UID value as in test/dev and everything fell in to place.
As for having the same file system mounted in two different LPARs, well, it seems to work fine. We are in a sysplex, I believe. In any case nothing "important" is going to be done with this file system, so I'm comfortable with what I have, even if it isn't 100% kosher. ________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> on behalf of Frank Swarbrick <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2023 12:17 PM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Unix file system ownership I'm guessing this is hopeless, but figured I'd ask anyway. For "some reason" we have separate RACF databases for each of our environments (dev/test vs production). Because of this (I think it's the reason!) my Unix UID is different in production than in dev/test. This means that even though my personal Unix file system is mounted at the same mount point in each, only in one of them (dev/test) do I technically "own" it. I'm wondering if there might be some way I can "own" it in both systems. Can UIDs be explicitly set to a particular value? Or can one be mapped to another? Or something else? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
