Interface with CA VM:Account

If you use the CA resource accounting product, CA VM:Account, CA VM:Director performs the following accounting functions:

• Passing all account number changes to CA VM:Account for validation. CA VM:Director prevents users from charging resources consumed to invalid account numbers.
• When user IDs exceed the CA VM:Account budget limits, CA VM:Director can change the logon password to NOLOG in the CP source and object directory.

Note: For more information about how CA VM:Director works with CA VM:Account to validate account number changes, see the CA Mainframe VM Product Manager Product Interface Guide. For more information about how account numbers work with CA VM:Director, see Assigning Account Numbers to User IDs.
