Re: Refresh my memory: what is it that controls the public authority . . .

<<SNIP>> If the user performing the restore does not have the
necessary [special] authorities [e.g. SPCAUT(*SECADM *ALLOBJ)], then
as I recall, the saved programs that were defined with USER(*OWNER)
[to effect adopted authority of the object owner], the [public]
authority of the object and\or the adoption attribute may be changed.
I do not recall the diagnostic message or the specific scenario(s)
for which the issue arises. In that case the restore of the object
completes but the overall restore request would /fail/ with an Escape
message indicating that some prior /attribute changes/ were effected
during the restore. <<SNIP>>

Either of the errors, msg CPF3852 or msg CPF3853, describes the above scenario. And the error msg CPF3848 "&1 security or data format changes occurred" describes that a prior condition of CPF3852 could be one possible origin. The error msg CPF3773 documents that the restore had errors.

The scenario I had alluded to above is explained by the following message text; FWiW I originally had overlooked entirely the CP_3800 range of messages, having recalled only CP_3700 messages as belonging to the Save\Restore (SR) feature:

CPF3852 "All authorizations to &2 &1 in library &3 revoked."
Cause: &2 &1 in library &3 adopted the user profile of the
object owner and the object was restored by a user who
was not the owner of the object and who did not have all
object authority (*ALLOBJ) and security administrator
authority (*SECADM).
Recovery: Obtain authority from the owner of the object or
obtain all object (*ALLOBJ) and security administrator
authority (*SECADM) special authority from the security
officer.
