Explanation

The requested spool file cannot be accessed as the CICS address space useriduserid does not have the necessary authorization to the spool file.
When the CICS DA Active spool component is used to access a spool file, two different userids might require access to the spool file before it can be read:
  • The userid associated with the CICS task. If this access fails message CPHSP163 is issued.
  • The userid associated with the CICS job or started task/job. If this access fails, this message is issued.

System action

The CICS DA Active spool request fails.

User response

Check with your security administrator to see if spool file access should be allowed by the CICS address space userid associated with the CICS DA Active spool component. Depending on the reason for the failure, and the security manager in use, the security manager might have logged violation messages to help identify the necessary resource and profile names. These names will be needed by the security administrator.
