|||||||||||||||||||||||||
APAR status Closed as documentation error. Error description Application assemblers or deployers use the res-auth deployment element to specify whether the container or application component will determine the user ID. They also may set or alter the user ID through the RunAsor Set OS thread identity to RunAs identity deployment descriptor elements. Application assemblers use the WebSphere for z/OS Application Assembly tool to set these elements in the deployment descriptor. . Application installers can configure a WebSphere for z/OS J2EE server to honor an applications use of the Set OS thread identity to RunAs identity deployment descriptor element along with container-managed resource authentication. To do so, they use the Administration application to select the Enable Setting OS thread ID to RunAs ID property. . The "Set OS thread identity to RunAs identity"deployment descriptor element is not required in the above statements.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * version 4.0.1 for z/OS and OS/390 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Application installers can configure a * * WebSphere for z/OS J2EE server to honor * * an applications use of the Set OS * * thread identity to RunAs identity * * deployment descriptor element along * * with container-managed resource * * authentication.

The "Set OS thread identity to RunAs identity"deployment descriptor element is not required in the above statements.Problem conclusion The following information was revised as a result of APAR PQ71760: The third bullet in Chapter 4, section " Determining the user ID for resource authentication" of "WebSphere Application Server V4.0.1 for z/OS and OS/390 Assembling Java2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) Applications," SA22-7836-06, has been changed to the following: Application installers can configure a WebSphere for z/OS J2EE server to honor an application's deployment descriptor settings for RunAs and for container-managed authentication. To do so, they use the Administration application to select the Enable Setting OS thread ID to RunAs ID property.
