ID still exist after deletion

Postby jaggz » Tue Apr 17, 2012 12:10 pm

Hi,

I was in process of deleting the inactive ID. My approach was deleting the Profile ,deleting the user and deleting the alias. One of user was still visible via "TSO LU USERID" and I tried again deleting the profile using Delete profile using Racf panel but I get same message as
ICH04009I UXXXXX  CANNOT BE DELETED. DATA SET PROFILES STILL EXIST.


My Delete Profile message for this ID was :

        DD 'UXXXXX.**'                 
ICH09020I UXXXXX.** NOT DEFINED TO RACF
READY                                   


My delete Alias shows as :

  DELETE (Uxxxxx) ALIAS                                               
IDC3012I ENTRY Uxxxxxx NOT FOUND                                       
IDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 8 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLEG-42 
IDC0551I ** ENTRY Uxxxxxx NOT DELETED                                   
IDC0001I FUNCTION COMPLETED, HIGHEST CONDITION CODE WAS 8               


But Again the user is visible under RACF.


Any direction or guidance would really help me.

  • Why is the message "dataset profiles still exist" so hard for you to understand???? Obviously you have to find them and delete them. What does the message manual have to say about ICH04009? I don't know what it says, and I will not find it for you, but it may make suggestions about how to proceed.
  • A catalog alias is usually built when a userid is created, but its existence has nothing to do with the userid except it happens to have the same character string. If one does not exist it may mean someone else attempted to delete the user before you and also failed in this endeavor.

I did TSO SEARCH CL(DATASET) MASK(USERID) and one of a dataset of the userid was existing so I did DELDSD and removed the user permanently using DELUSER .
