Thanks to those who responded. I searched for this information for about an 
hour before I posted to the list, then found what others have pointed out 2 
minutes after I had posted and had given up on finding it myself. I kept 
looking for some command to list this information, and there apparently is none.

The REXX program word by word without AIM parts, is coming from G. Fogg in year 
2000.

Whoever did the AIM part still remains a mystery...

Re: RACF AIM level

2012-09-13 Thread John Gilmore
The G. Fogg portion of this REXX routine is a conversion from PL/I
to REXX, perhaps at several removes, of one of a set of generic PL/I
procedures---All of therm 1)  initialize a pointer to a pointer with
x'0010' and 2) chase pointer chains anchored in the CVT---that
were written by my quondam colleague Daniel B. Davis more than 40
(sic) years ago.

PL:/I is still indeed a very much better and more perspicuous vehicle
for this sort of thing than REXX.

Other than the requirement for AIM level 3 to use BPX.UNIQUE.USER, and
BPX.DEFAULT.USER going away after z/OS 1.13, has there been any
other SOD related to not running AIM level 3?

I don't know, but AIM level 3 is approx. 12 years old. I did the 
conversion on OS/390.

So, is there any reason to stay on AIM level 0? What one would wait for?

The same sort of things people wait on for other migrations or implementing
enhancements.  Sometimes it takes a compelling reason to change
and / or go through a migration.  Many people still live by the credo if
it ain't broken, don't fix it.  

In my client's case, I talked to the RACF team about it years ago because
of the performance benefit it would have in the environment due heavy
z/OS unix usage.  I could just never get them to do it - but now I have
ammunition since one sysplex uses bpx.default.user.   So the migration
is already on their plate after we finish off z/OS 1.13 migrations in a
few weeks. 

It's been about 8 or 9 years since I looked, but I recall an issue with the
number of STC userids sharing UID(0) at the time.  Not a big deal, but
it is something they would have to change and has to be tested.  Things
now may not be as bad as they were back then due to changes over
the years from UID(0) in favor of various BPX.* RACF profiles like
BPX.SUPERUSER and/or UNIXPRIV.

Regards,

Mark

I have inherited a system where I don't know the level of AIM
indexing. I am certain it is less than 2, since I am getting an error
message that tells me I need to be at that level do perform the
actions I want to perform. But is the indexing 0 or 1? Hpw can I
tell? I would imagine that there is a command or utility that wil
tell me. My system is z/OS 1.11, so the health check that I have
found to exist in 1.12 and later is not available.


Simply run IRRIRA without parameters. It will tell you the level.
