A fix is available
APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The auditconfig stanza is added to /etc/nscontrol.conf in 6.1tl9 and 7.1tl3, but systems that have been upgraded (as opposed to a fresh install) will not have this stanza. This can cause an issue where 'audit start' will fail with the 'failed setting role based audit classes' error message; adding the stanza will correct this.
Local fix
Add the stanza manually.
Problem summary
On system upgrades to 6.1 TL9 and 7.1 TL3 from previous levels 'audit start' with the error message 'failed setting role based audit classes'.
Problem conclusion
Changes to the packaging routines to add auditconfig stanza to the /etc/nscontrol.conf file so 'audit start' no longer fails.
Temporary fix
