Check Text (C-251594r960864_chk)

Examine load module "RHDCSRTT" by executing CA IDMS utility "IDMSSRTD", or by issuing command "DCMT DISPLAY SRTT" while signed onto the CV, and reviewing the output. Note: This requires PTFs SO07995 and SO09476. If the TYPE=INITIAL #SECRTT has DFLTSGN=YES specified, this is a finding. If DFLTUID is defined, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-54983r807648_fix)

Set DFLTSGN=NO and remove the DFLTUID from the #SECRTT INITIAL macro that is input to the RHDCSRTT module, then reassemble and relink RHDCSRTT. After making the above changes, assemble and link RHDCSRTT to create a new SRTT. To implement the new SRTT, either recycle any CVs that use the SRTT or issue these commands: DCMT VARY NUCLEUS MODULE RHDCSRTT NEW COPY DCMT VARY NUCLEUS RELOAD
