ACF2 ACF2 - z/OS ACF2 - MISC

Issue/Introduction

After converting ACF2 password encryption to AES256 by setting the GSO record PSWD to PSWDENCT(ASE2), there are a few users who have not changed the password.
Apparently they rarely logon.  Is there a method to get this changed?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

ACF2 was enhanced to allow the PWCNVRT command be used to change a users password to the current method.

 

 CHANGE logonid PWCNVRT
