Abstract
Service tools user ID and password enhancements for IBM i 7.4
Content
The following password composition rules can be configured for service tools user IDs:
|
Limit profile name Hours to block password change Minimum password length Maximum password length Use chars from three groups Limit adjacent characters Limit repeating characters Limit characters same position Minimum digits Maximum digits Limit adjacent digits Limit digit first position |
Limit digit last position Minimum letters Maximum letters Limit adjacent letters Limit letter first position Limit letter last position Number of mixed case letters Minimum special characters Maximum special characters Limit adjacent special chars Limit special char first position Limit special char last position |
Service tools password composition rules are configured using DST, SST, or the new SST Security Attribute commands.
- Change SST Security Attributes (CHGSSTSECA)
- Display SST Security Attributes (DSPSSTSECA)
In addition to password rule attributes, the commands support the “service tools password level” attribute and the “allow security-related system values to be changed” attribute.
New commands were added for service tools user ID management. These commands configure the same SST privileges managed through DST or SST.
- Create Service Tools User ID (CRTSSTUSR)
- Change Service Tools User ID (CHGSSTUSR)
- Delete Service Tools User ID (DLTSSTUSR)
Refer to the Service Tools topic in the IBM i Knowledge Center for more information.
