Programming Interface Information
The passwords associated with RACF® user profiles periodically expire and must be updated by the user. An installation that uses APPC to communicate with TPs running on MVS may want to use APPC to update MVS passwords. APPC/MVS provides a TP (X'06F3F0F1') that makes it possible
to update RACF passwords on
MVS, and two sample TPs (ATBMINO and COMUPASS) that aid in managing
passwords:
The ATBMINO and COMUPASS password maintenance TPs comprise examples of how a partner LU can communicate with APPC/MVS to maintain passwords. These examples are shipped with MVS, and may be downloaded to the system running on the partner LU. For instructions on how to download and use these programs, see Using Sample Programs to Maintain User Passwords on a Partner LU. As an alternative to modifying the sample programs to maintain APPC/MVS passwords, partner systems can use the SIGNON/Change password TP as described in 2.c. This can avoid the rejection of an allocate (attach) request due to an expired user password. End of Programming Interface Information
