Re: COMMAND AUTHORITY LOGIC

I believe this issue arises when you modify a system domain object
(the CHGLIBL command).  When you modify it, the command becomes
"user domain" and is no longer eligble to directly reference a
system state program.

You can verify this if you have QAUDJRN turned on.  Look for
Journal Code "T" and journal type "AF".  Then scan the first byte
of the data structure for the violation code of either "C" or
"D".  If you find these litter uglies, then I've correctly
diagnosed the problem.

However, all of this assumes that you're at QSECURITY level 40 or
50.  If you're not, then I'm dead wrong.  :)
