ERRORuserid string length of number is invalid; maximum length is number
CAUSEThe userid is too long () to be used with TCP/IP RACF conversation security. This can occur only when the gateway initialization parameter PGA_SECURITY_TYPE is set to either SAME or PROGRAM.
ACTIONThe userid must be changed to a shorter value on both the client system and the system where the remote transaction program is being executed. The maximum allowable length for the userid is characters. This restriction is imposed by RACF, not by the gateway.
