When an incorrect password is entered the requisite number of times for a user with SYSTEM SPECIAL, a WTOR is presented to the operator. The user is not revoked unless the operator responds to that WTOR specifying the user should be revoked. If that is indeed what happened, the operator needs some additional training.
The fact that one user has been revoked should not prevent any other user from logging on. What happens when a different user tries? If all user logons fail, it is a different issue. What updates were made to the system when this started happening? The message is a TSO message (specifically from the logon command processor), not a RACF one. My manual says the message number should be 56443, not 6644. Which version of TSO are you running? The message addresses a reconnect issue. What happens when the user logs on without specifying reconnect? Does your system have only one user with SYSTEM SPECIAL? Another user with proper authority should be able to resume the revoked user. Are batch jobs being affected? If not, the problem may be limited to TSO. A batch job may be able to resume the user > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On > Behalf Of saurabh khandelwal > Sent: Saturday, August 04, 2018 4:20 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: RACF Special User Revoked System > > Hello Group, > > We are facing issue that someone by mistake used wrong password on special > user and this end up revoking anybody to login to our system . > > RACF is not allowing anybody to login.
