PWADMIN—Enforce NEWPW Rules for Administrative Password Changes—Added this section, describing control option that enforces NEWPW control option rules and password interval specification when an administrator or user with MISC8(PWMAINT) or ACID(MAINTAIN) authority performs a password change through a TSS command.

The following changes were made in the the last release of this documentation:

Options for Invoking Predefined Facilities. Provided an introductory explanation for the section; updated the default settings for the CICSPROD and CICSTEST facilities.
CPFAUTOGID—Insert a Specific USS GID During CPF Command Processing. Added this section for a new control option that transmits a TSS command with an assigned GID value, instead of the '?' value, when you are using the Command Propagation Facility (CPF) feature.
CPFAUTOUID—Insert a Specific USS UID During CPF Command Processing. Added this section for a new control option that transmits a TSS command with an assigned UID value, instead of the '?' value, when you are using the Command Propagation Facility (CPF) feature
FSACCESS—Enable or Disable FSACCESS Resource Class Checks. Clarified that all entry methods are accepted.
MODLUSER—Identify an OMVS Model User. Removed UID from the list of fields that is provided to ACID. Announced variable specification for HOME field; which the current user ID value replaces when MODLUSER information is added to a user’s ACID record. Added DFLTGRP to the list of fields that is provided to the ACID.
OMVSGRP—Assign an OMVSGRP Segment and Default Group. Clarified that OMVSGRP is not supported in z/OS 2.1 and above, in which case you can use UNIQUSR and MODLUSER instead.
OMVSUSR—Assign an OMVS Segment for Extract. Clarified that OMVSUSR is not supported in z/OS 2.1 and above, in which case you can use UNIQUSR and MODLUSER instead.
OPTIONS—Specify Configuration Options. Added description for option value 79, which specifies to write an SMF record when control option OMVSUSR or OMVSGRP is used to provide a default UID or GID, respectively. Updated description for option 72, which allows a MASTFAC (Master Facility) on all ACID types capable of signon.
UNIQUSER—Assign a UID Automatically During OMVS Logon. Corrected the example syntax.
