    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When multiple consecutive INSTDATA fields are updated on the
    data set profile summary display (ISPF panel C2RP3@@S), zSecure
    Admin for RACF generates an incorrect value for the DATA
    argument of the ALTDSD command (blanks terminated by a period
    are added to the value entered by the user).
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Admin for RACF has been modified so it correctly
    generates ALTDSD commands in response to the update of
    multiple consecutive INSTDATA fields on the data set profile
    summary.display.
