Error description

  • When a password is expiring the client should display message
    ANS8004W indicating how many days until the password expires.
    For example,
    
    ANS8004W Your password will expire within 1 day(s).
    
    Instead, the following message is displayed:
    
    $ dsmadmc

    ANS1051I Invalid user id or password

    reattempt the operation.

Problem conclusion

  • If the admin id or nodename is managed by LDAP, and it will
    expire soon, then the client may fail to authenticate and
    display 'ANS1051I Invalid user id or password', or may continue
    but not display message  'ANS8004W Your password will expire
    within 1 day(s)'. After applying the fix, the client will
    display message  'ANS8004W Your password will expire within 1
    day(s)' when an LDAP password is expiring soon.
