User ID (USERID)

 

We can specify a task user identifier of 20 characters.

The user ID may be used by the MCA when attempting to initiate a secure SNA session with a remote MCA. It is valid for channel types of sender, server, requester, or client-connection.

This does not apply to WebSphere MQ for z/OS except for client-connection channels.

On the receiving end, if passwords are kept in encrypted format and the LU 6.2 software is using a different encryption method, an attempt to start the channel fails with invalid security details. We can avoid this by modifying the receiving SNA configuration to either:

• Turn off password substitution, or

• Define a security user ID and password.

On WebSphere MQ for z/OS, this attribute is valid only for client connection channels. On other platforms it is valid for channel types of:

• Sender

• Server

• Requester

• Client connection

• Cluster sender
