Password Resets
« on: September 20, 2012, 11:07:36 AM »
Hi, We are currently using RACF validation for CMOD.  This was mainly done because of converting from OnDemand on the mainframe to CMOD 8.4 we wanted to keep the same access groups in place.  The issue is when a users password expires in RACF, they receive an "An error has occurred on  the OnDemand Server"..The message is confusing enough but also with using RACF security, the "Change Password" feature in CMOD doesn't work..We have communicated to internal users they need to log into the mainframe, change their password there, and then log back in CMOD.....Is there anyone else incorporating RACF security with CMOD?  If so, how are password resets handled?..Also, since converting to CMOD and using the Webi client, we wanted to open up it to our external users to be able to log into CMOD..Obviously external users don't have mainframe access directly...What we need is to be able to use the Change Password Function enabled on CMOD with using RACF security...Any ideas?

Hi,
if you are using a security exit you could generate a specific message in case of RACF problems (filling of ArcCSXitSecurity-msg).
This could be checked by Webi and answered with some special actions.
