How to determine
if RACF is running |
Use the RACF
SETROPTS command to display the status of RACF. |
What happens to WebSphere
for z/OS if RACF goes down? |
RACF goes into fail
safe mode. This means that for every resource that is accessed, the operator
is asked to verify if it is okay. In general, the system is IPLed if this
occurs. |
What happens to other
subsystems if RACF goes down? |
It depends on the
subsystem and how RACF fails. |
