When running the Unused Profile Cleanup utility in batch I noticed a concern on the field PERM#.
define Perm#(8," Pe/UACC",dec,noprop) count
Let's say you have an environment of 3 LPARs/PLEXes and each has its own RACF DB that is kept in sync with RRSF. If you want to determine profile usage you would need to run the access monitor job with access monitor data from the 3 systems and you need the RACF DB or an Unload from the 3 systems as well.
Let's say you have a profile called HELLO.DATA.** that has 10 permissions in it. So due to RRSF all 3 RACF DB's have the profile with the 10 permissions.
When you run this report AM.8.1 it tells you that PERM# is equal to 30 permissions, because it seems to add the permissions from each RACF DB.
Anyway, to adjust the DEFINE or SORTLIST to make the counter give a count of unique permissions that exist.?
