In 9.0, have noticed GEN is not an option for granting security in laua security class; also it does not appear in dbdef. I haven't been able to find anything which says that GEN should be available, but also I haven't found anything which says it should not be available. Can someone confirm in 9.0 (Unix) that GEN is available or not available when trying to grant access in a Security class? Or in dbdef? Thank you in advance, -R

We don't have it here ?? Puzzling! I know it used to exist pre 9.

It shouldn't be there...as it's a "hidden" product line. It would only have been visible if you followed some special instructions to add it as a product line (i.e. look at the GEN/PRODLINE table...it's probably not there...). This was usually only done in special situations, particularly when a client needed to do a paintscreen against it in order to fix a GEN table. The danger of having it listed is that it could be accidentally deleted via dbdef, amongst other things....
Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

Here is what I've found:

you have to manually add gen PL and define CS, IS and UN source codes the way it's displayed. LA will be created automatically after all is saved 

   Product Line Definition          
                                                             
                    Product Line     GEN                     
                                                             
                    LauNT or Unix    No                      
                    iSeries RPG ILE  No                      
                                                             

      System           System Name                    Release
                                                                            
        CS             CASE SUPPORT                   Release 9.0.1
        IS             INTERNAL SUPPORT             Release 9.0.1
        LA
        UN             universe                                  Release 9.0.1
