Question:

 

How to identify user with no password?

 

 

Answer:

 

To identify all acid not having a password, you must run with the MSCA the following TSS command:

 

TSS LIS(ACIDS) DATA(PASSWORD)

 

To identify a specific acid not having a password, you must run with the MSCA the following TSS command:

 

TSS LIS(acid#) DATA(PASSWORD)

 

Where acid# is the acid to be listed.

The list will show *NOPW* as password, indicating that the acid doesn't have any password.

When the password is blanked out, it means that the acid has got a true password.

 

Additional Information:

 

    Example #1: 

 

    TSS LIS(CTS310A) DATA(PASSWORD) will show:

                      

    ACCESSORID = CTS310A   NAME       = CTS 310 REGION ACID

    PASSWORD   = *NOPW*                                    

                                                       

    TSS0300I  LIST     FUNCTION SUCCESSFUL

 

    The *NOPW* indicates that the acid doesnt' have a password.

 

 

Example #2:

 

TSS LIS(ACID#) DATA(PASSWORD)

                   

ACCESSORID = ACID#      NAME       = ACID NAME

PASSWORD   =

 

TSS0300I  LIST     FUNCTION SUCCESSFUL

 

The blanked out password indicates the the acid has got a password.
