Logon Mode Requirements

The IBM® i5/OS™ system and DDM clients have the following logon mode requirements:

It requires a logon mode named QPCSUPP in order to perform authorization checking.
It only supports one logon mode name specification to be used for all target systems.

If you do not successfully place a logon mode table entry named QPCSUPP in the z/OS® VTAM® logon mode table concatenation for your z/OS APPC APPL, you will receive error messages, see Figure 1, on your z/OS console:
