    Profile CKR.READALL is one of the methods to specify that a zSecure user can see all RACF profiles, otherwise only what is in his scope.

    Is there a way to specify that a user is allowed to see all profiles of a certain RACF group and all the subgroups of that Group.

    Thanks in advanc

    If you have a group ABC, that is owned by group APPL, that in turn is owned by SYS1, then you can RDEFINE XFACILIT CKG.SCP.G.APPL.ABC.** UACC(NONE)

    This covers ABC and all groups owned by (subgroups of) ABC, following the group tree. Issue a PERMIT ACCESS(READ) on this profile, and the (group of) users in the permit can use zSecure RA.G to display the group and some information about the group.

    Thanks for the quick response.

    I defined XFACILIT CKG.SCP.G.** and permit access(read) but I don't see any group via RA.G

    I checked with Access Monitor, but the profile is not refered.
