What it means

IBM's RACF diagnosis guide gives one description for abends 482, 483 and 485: an error in the RACF manager while it was handling a RACF service call (SVC).

The guide says to read the message issued with the abend and to find the RACF manager request in message IRR413I. This is usually a job for the systems programmer.

Typical causes

  • An error inside the RACF manager while it handled the request.
  • The failing manager request is named in message IRR413I.
  • The message issued with the abend gives the reason.

How to fix it

  1. Capture the messages issued with the abend, including IRR413I if present.
  2. Look up the abend and message in RACF Messages and Codes for your z/OS level.
  3. Ask your systems programmer to search IBM support for a matching problem.
  4. If none is found, the systems programmer can obtain a dump and report it to IBM.
