SYMPTOMS
You use the Host Access Management Agent (HAMA) to export user objects from Microsoft Identity Integration Server (MIIS) to IBM Resource Access Control Facility (IBM RACF). If the user objects include TSO CATALOG attributes, you receive an error message during the export process that resembles the following error message:

Microsoft.MetadirectoryServices.EntryExportException: USER CATALOG, MASTER CATALOG, and CATALOG ALIAS must all be present in order to properly export these attributes. at

Microsoft.MetadirectoryServices.Host.RACF.RACFMA.ExportEntry(ModificationType modificationType, String[] changedAttributes, CSEntry csentry)

Note This problem occurs in Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003 Host Access Management Agent Feature Pack 3.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the HAMA incorrectly processes TSO CATALOG attributes that are contained in the user objects. This problem occurs even if the attributes are not being exported to RACF.
