They ran SYS1.WAS.SBBOCLIB(BBOWSTRT)' which is the cusomisation rexx which lets you define the procedure names. Part of this process is to define the GID for the Groups that are used by WAS R4. At this site they use 10 character GIDs ( 10char ) When these were coded and the generate job submitted, they received: ERROR: Unauthenticated User Group and WebSphere Control Regions group have the same GID but different group values. ERROR: Unauthenticated User Group and WebSphere main server region group have the same GID but different group values. ERROR: Unauthenticated User Group and WebSphere Configuration HFS user group have the same GID but different group values. ERROR: WebSphere Control Regions group and WebSphere main server region group have the same GID but different group values. ERROR: WebSphere Configuration HFS user group and WebSphere Administrator group x have the same GID but different group values. They had this coded in one of the panels: WebSphere Common Groups and User IDs Control region group for ALL servers..: WASCTL1 Control region GID for ALL servers....: 1616000019 Server region group for base servers..: WASSR1 Server region GID for base servers....: 1616000020 Unauthenticated User Definitions for Base Servers Userid...: CBGUEST UID..: 0009000251 Group....: WASCLGP GID..: 1616000021 WebSphere Application Installer Group Information Group....: WASCFG1 GID..: 1616000022 WebSphere Administrator Information Userid...: WASADMIN UID..: 0009000252 When they changed the GID of 1616000019 above to 7000019, and tried again, about half of the error msgs went away.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V4.0 and V4.0.1 for z/OS and OS/390. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If the user entered a 10-digit UID * * or GID, the "WebSphere for z/OS * * Customization" Dialog complains that * * the 10-digit UIDs and GIDs * * matches with other 10-digit UIDs and * * GIDs, when in fact the IDs do not * * match. * * * * The user gets similar error messages * * to the following when running the * * generate function from the * * Customization Dialog: * * * * ERROR: Unauthenticated User Group and * * WebSphere Control Regions group * * have the same GID but different group * * values. * * * * ERROR: Unauthenticated User Group and * * WebSphere main server region group * * have the same GID but different group * * values. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The reason why the dialog complains when comparing UIDs and GIDs is that the dialog uses a numerical compare function and the compare would fail when numbers are more than 8 digits.Problem conclusion To correct the reported problem, the compare function is changed from a numerical compare to a string compare.
