The CHKPASS user exit verifies logon passwords entered for executing CA VM:Secure commands. Without a CHKPASS user exit, CA VM:Secure verifies passwords by checking the CP directory. The exit does not receive control if the user issuing the command has NOPASS authorization.
A pswd argument which contains embedded blanks is passed within the argument string enclosed in single quotes. The user exit sample program contains code to parse the argument string into variables. You must use this method if you use password phrases.
A CHKPASS user exit is essential for sites that use security packages where the logon password is not stored in the CP directory.
