Password phrase values are stored in user directory entry source files as special comment records of the form *PW00= hex digits. Any manual modification of these records is unsupported, and could result in the inability to log on with the modified user ID directory entry. Additional records, beginning with *PW01=, *PW02=, and so on, are used to track previously used passwords. A default of eight previous passwords are kept for each user, but you can specify the number to be kept with the MAXOLDPW configuration file record, documented in the chapter "Configuration File Reference" in the Reference Guide. Password history is made available to your PASSWORD user exit routine.
You must use only CA VM:Secure password management interfaces, described below, to maintain user passwords.
