Issue/Introduction

Message TEN0023 appears when you lock your TPX session. This document explains how you can change the message text.

 

Environment

5.3-TPX-Session Management-Access Management package
 

Resolution

When you lock your TPX session using command /L you are presented with this panel. If you are using a Security System (TOP Secret, ACF2, RAC/F) then you need to enter the password used at login to lock your terminal - in this case the LOCKWORD is your password. If you are not using a Security System then you logged on to TPX without entering a password. In that case you can use any word as LOCKWORD:

         **********************************************************
         *                                                        *
         *       MSGID: TEN0023                                   *
         *                                                        *
         *       CAUSE: TERMINAL LOCK REQUEST - ENTER LOCKWORD    *
         *                                                        *
         *       TO PROCEED, ENTER THE LOCK WORD                  *
         *                                                        *
         *            ===>                                        *
         *                                                        *
         **********************************************************

This panel is available in dataset 'hlq.CB0VPENU'.

If a different message, such as, enter password rather than Lock word, or to address the lower case password prompt is needed, follow the steps below to create a new panel TEN0023:

         *                                                        *
         *       MSGID: TEN0023                                   *
         *                                                        *
         *       CAUSE: TERMINAL LOCK REQUEST - ENTER LOCKWORD    *
         *                                                        *
         *       TO PROCEED, ENTER THE LOCK WORD. PASSWORD IS     *
         *       CASE SENSITIVE. REMEMBER TO ENTER THE PASSWORD   *
         *       THE SAME WAY YOU DID TO START THE SESSION.       *
         *                                                        *
         *            ===>                                        *
         *                                                        *

1. Copy 'hlq.CB0VPENU(TEN0023)' into a dataset ( user.panels ) which should be concatenated before CB0VPENU in the PANELS DD in the TPX proc.
   
   
2. In this new member make sure to only change the line starting with 'TO PROCEED' and no other lines. Repeat that line if you need more space for your text. Finally, save and exit.
   
   
3. In TPXOPER, enter RELOAD PANEL=TEN0023.
   
   To fall back to original panel, simply delete your modified copy of panel TEN0023 and reload the original TEN0023 with TPXOPER command "RELOAD PANEL=TEN0023" again.
