Password Violation Threshold

The violation threshold is the maximum number of consecutive times a wrong password can be entered before the ACID is suspended. There is a single violation threshold for both passwords and password phrases. The password violation threshold does not apply when attempting to assign a new password or password phrase and the user fails to match the password selection rules.

To set the password violation threshold, enter the command:

TSS MODIFY(PTHRESH(nnn))
nnn

The number of consecutive incorrect password or password phrase entries before the ACID is suspended.

Range: 1 to 255

Default: 3
