I  wanted a drop in solution with just RACF & DB2 commands. Doesn't look like
it exists.

:>I researched (never implemented) this for a project and found that DB2 
secondary authorization id's are implemented through a DB2 user exit. Maybe 
someone has used it but if not, the doc is 
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/13.0.0?topic=applications-using-secondary-ids-sign-requests

:>I suspect you could implement it using SUROGAT but I suspect there must be a 
reason why IBM chose RACF groups. Hopefully someone has some real experience.
