Issue/Introduction

Questions about password encryption in CA PDSMAN.

1. Does CA PDSMAN use DES encryption ?
2. If DES encryption is used, does it support KDFAES ?

Environment

Release : 7.7

Component : CA-PDSMAN for OS/390

Resolution

Password encryption do not apply to PDSMAN.        
                              
There is no support needed since PDSMAN does not use any interfaces requiring support for passwords or phrases.                           

PDSMAN does not logon, or create user ids, so PDSMAN never needs to handle password passwords or phrases.
