Profile

A Profile is an object that is used to provide the LDAP users with a mainframe password.

These objects are primarily a set of mainframe credentials sent to the mainframe when an LDAP authenticated user wants to perform an action on the mainframe.

Notes:

• The LDAP Mainframe Hybrid Profile Object sends the LDAP credentials of a user to the mainframe rather than a separate set of credentials.
• The EXIT Profile Object sends the mainframe credentials that are returned from exit calls to the mainframe rather than a separate set of credentials that are stored within Web Viewer.
