Colloquially, at least, a lot of people would consider some of them to be "fixes." For example, PI99282 is for z/VSE's ICKDSF. And it's a patch to make sure that ICKDSF gives some preference to base rather than alias addresses in a couple commands. By the way, z/OS allows you to assign and manage e-mail addresses if you'd like to do that. There are a couple different ways that's possible. For simply and straightforwardly associating an e-mail address with a particular RACF user ID, please refer to APAR OA50735. I believe that new RACF feature is available in z/OS 2.1 and higher if you have the z/OS Security Server optional element. You can also use the IBM Directory Server for z/OS, a base z/OS element, to provide LDAP authentication and authorization services using long IDs in practically any form, including e-mail addresses. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples IT Architect Executive, Industry Solutions, IBM Z & LinuxONE E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
