Issue with docs.zowe.org/stable/user-guide/configuring-zowe-via-jcl/

Description

Member IBMUSER.ZWEV3A.CUST.JCLLIB(ZWEIRAC)

adds the same group twice

ADDGROUP ZWEADMIN OMVS(AUTOGID) - DATA('ZOWE ADMINISTRATORS')


ADDGROUP ZWEADMIN OMVS(AUTOGID) -


Question why do we need a started task userid ZWESIUSR and ZWESVUSR. Please explain why we need two userids.


The doc says

Zowe requires a user ID ZWESVUSR ... is this true ? can I use another userid or must it be ZWEVUSR. If I define a second ZOWE instance, must it use the same userid?


The RACF member has

ADDGROUP IBMUSER.ZWEV3A DATA('Zowe - HLQ STUB')

which fails because it is not an 8 char string.

ZWEIRAC is not the cause of double group creation entries. The cause is the YAML:

https://github.com/zowe/zowe-install-packaging/blob/v3.x/staging/example-zowe.yaml#L73-L77

If you do not make edits here for the appropriate groups you want, that is the result.

The documentation of ADDGROUP says DATA can take up to 255 characters. I am not sure why it would fail for you with more than 8: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/3.1.0?topic=syntax-addgroup-add-group-profile
