DFHDPLOY to fast fail when security errors encountered

When using DFHDPLOY to install a CICS bundle and a a security error is encountered, the DFHDPLOY process appears to continue to attempt the install until the timeout value has been reached. The DFHDPLOY process shows no indication of a security error, even with DPLOYTRC defined.

    This RFE is being closed with a reason "Is a defect". If you are still experiencing the problem please open a PMR with the service team as the DFHDPLOY process should indicate a security error. We will need to collect some more diagnostics to determine what the problem is.

    I have recreated this in my environment with a userid which has no access to install the BUNDDEF into the target region and security is set to yes in the CMAS and the target MAS.
    The DFHDPLOY log shows
    12:27:51.656809 : DFHRL2049I Creating BUNDLE definition.
    12:27:52.666883 : DFHRL2052I Installing BUNDLE definition.
    12:27:52.667574 : DFHRL2131I Waiting for BUNDLE(BUND1) to be installed in active regions in SCOPE(GROUP1).
    12:27:53.676059 : DFHRL2098E Unable to perform DEPLOY due to security restriction for the current userid.
    12:27:53.676168 : DFHRL2055I Errors have occurred, processing terminated.
    12:27:53.679240 : DFHRL2014I Disconnecting from CICSPLEX(AHPLEXDE).

    and the DPLOYTRC shows correctly that the API call failed
    12:27:52.667580 : DFHRL2131I Waiting for BUNDLE(BUND1) to be installed in active regions in SCOPE(GROUP1).
    12:27:52.667594 : 4 ENTRY: Async_API_Wait

    12:27:52.667594 : 4 Wait Que(NOTSET)
    12:27:52.667594 : 4 Waiter token(0008)
    12:27:53.675217 : 5 RECEIVE SENTINEL
    12:27:53.675217 : 5 SENTINEL(00000001)
    12:27:53.675959 : 5 TPARSE ASYNCREQ
    12:27:53.675959 : 5 SMResponse(OK)
    12:27:53.675959 : 5 Count(0)
    12:27:53.675959 : 5 Response(NOTPERMIT 1031)
    12:27:53.675959 : 5 Reason(USRID 1345)
    12:27:53.676066 : DFHRL2098E Unable to perform DEPLOY due to security restriction for the current userid.

    This is using the latest code level. I would like to know which code level you are running and which version of CICS Transaction Server the CMAS and MAS regions are running.

    If possible please could you attach the DPLOYTRC trace data to the requirement which will help us with diagnosing the problem.
