*
For software releases that are not yet generally available, the Fixed
Release is the software release in which the problem is planned to be
fixed.
- CHOWN.UNRESTRICTED is not defined in the Remote Access Control Facility (RACF) UNIXPRIV class,
- you replace a SAS data set in a SAS library that is stored in UNIX file system space, and
- the account under which you are running SAS is not a member of the group ID (GID) of the associated file.
ERROR: An I/O error has occurred on file xxxxxx.xxxxxx.xxxxxx.
You can avoid this problem by taking one of the following actions:
- Run SAS under an account that is a member of the group associated with the file.
- Request that a system administrator change the GID of the file.
- Define a profile for CHOWN.UNRESTRICTED. You can define profiles in the UNIXPRIV class to grant RACF authorization for certain z/OS UNIX privileges. Resource names in the UNIXPRIV class are associated with z/OS UNIX privileges. The profile for CHOWN.UNRESTRICTED enables a user to change the GID of a file that the user owns to a GID for which the user account is not a member.
