To implement the REFRESH RACF command via PIF/OCL o WAPL function.

To activate RACF sub resources, only option 9.6 in TWS is available.

There are chances to use 9.5 mistakenly. To avoid this, if there is an option in WAPL or PIF, it would be more usefull.

Raised case for this, i was suggested to refresh RACF resources through Automation or ISPF command.

Also as an alternative, i was told to raise RFE for implementing the REFRESH via PIF or WAPL function

    This would be very useful as we could automate a refresh of our multiple instances of TWS

    We are automating IBMOPC profile and we stuck with this option 9.6: manual activating in TWS.

    Btw option 9.5 we secured by RACF, you'll need special permission. for this option.
