Subject: IRRMIN00 does not run with RACF based on VSAM cluster
Hi stephan
so support for a RACF VSAM databases on a NONSMS managed volumes was introduced with OA62267 with PTF UJ08531 for z/OS 2.5. Is that applied to your system ? If it is i think you have to open a CASE with the RACF group.
cheers

Hello Rene,
the RACF DB is located on a NONSMS managed catalog disk.
VOLUME CACHE FW DUPLEX OTHER SUBSYS PHYSICAL
SERIAL STATUS STATUS DEVICE ID STATUS
-(2)-- --(18)-- --(19)-- -(20)- -(21)- --(22)--
SFTSC2 ACTIVE SIMPLEX ---- 0900 NONSMS

Many greetings

Hi stephan
it works for me with this job
//CRMBRT1A JOB MSGLEVEL=(1,1),CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=A,REGION=256M,
// NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//DEFINE EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE CRMBRT1.RACFBACK.VSAM
DEFINE CLUSTER (NAME('CRMBRT1.RACFBACK.VSAM') -
LINEAR -
NONSPANNED -
SHAREOPTIONS(3,3) -
CYL(60 0) -
CISZ(4096) -
REUSE -
ERASE -
FREESPACE(0 0))
/*
//INITALZE EXEC PGM=IRRMIN00,PARM=NEW
//STEPLIB DD DSN=SYS1.LINKLIB,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSRACF DD DSN=CRMBRT1.RACFBACK.VSAM,DISP=SHR
But i cant reproduce your issue. Is the DATA part of this cluster on a NONSMS managed volume ? That would require the PTF for OA62267.
cheers

Subject: IRRMIN00 does not run with RACF based on VSAM cluster
Hello all,
we have the following problem:
We are building a new system from scratch with RACF (so far we use TSS - Broadcom TopSecret). Since IBM says it should be possible, we created the RACF DB as a VSAM cluster. Next we ran IRRMIN00. However, this always ends with an error that we can't do anything with.
For testing, we created the RACF DB as a NON-VSAM, and there the IRRMIN00 worked.
Unfortunately we didn't find anything about it in the whole IBM documentation.
Does the IRRMIN00 basically not work with VSAM clusters. But then how should the templates get into the DB? Is this a bug of the IRRMIN00?
I hope someone can help us further.
Here the error message and the JCL:
