If ICSF is active then zOSMF requires configuration to permit it to the RACF resource classes for ICSF (this is in the zOSMF config). Older systems can run without ICSF, but starting with z/OS 2.3 it is mandatory to run ICSF as it is needed to meet NIST certification for PKI. So in z/OS 2.3 it is true zOSMF requires ICSF; most older systems will also due to cascading dependencies, such as Db2 version function. I don't know of a way to turn off ICSF in z/OS 2.3 but then I have never attempted to do that (why would you disable such great function?).
