CL Command Reference - CHGDSTPWD

CL Command List > CHGDSTPWD Reference

Description:

The Change IBM Service Tools Pwd (CHGDSTPWD) command is used to change the password for the IBM-supplied service tools user ID with service tools security privilege (QSECOFR) to the IBM-supplied default value. The password is changed immediately and an audit record is sent if auditing is active on your system.

Note: It is possible to rename any service tools user ID, including those supplied by IBM. IBM does not recommend that you do this. If QSECOFR has been renamed and the value *DEFAULT is specified for the password parameter, the CHGDSTPWD command will change the service tools user ID name back to QSECOFR and set the password to the IBM-supplied default value.

Restrictions:

. This command is shipped with public *USE authority, but you must be signed on as QSECOFR to use it. You cannot authorize other users to the command.



Examples:

Example 1: Changing to the Default DST Password

CHGDSTPWD PASSWORD(*DEFAULT)

This command changes the DST password to the system-shipped default.



Example 2: Leaving the DST Password Unchanged

CHGDSTPWD PASSWORD(*SAME)

This command does not change the DST password.
