The IMS Connect Extensions
Operations Console uses connection profiles to log in to your
z/OSĀ®
systems.
If you only maintain a single set of credentials to log into your z/OS systems, use the Default Connection Profile in the procedure below.
-
Select Preferences from the View menu.
-
Select Connection Profiles.
-
Select the Default Connection Profile, or click
New to create a new profile.
If you selected New, enter a name for the new profile and click OK.
This can be useful, for example, if you have more than one set of credentials you need to
use.
-
Enter the following information next to the profile name:
- User ID
- Enter the user ID that you would normally use to connect to z/OS systems.
- Password
- Enter the password.
Note: Passwords must conform to the
Activate Mixed
Case Passwords setting in the system definition
and the
PWCASE parameters on the
SECURITY control input data set option.
- If Activate Mixed Case Passwords
is enabled, you must enter each letter in the password
in the correct case.
- If Activate Mixed Case Passwords
is not enabled, the password is converted to all
uppercase so it does not matter how it is entered.
If the connection fails because the user is not
authenticated, check if you are using mixed-case passwords, and
if so ensure the password case is correct.
-
Click OK to save your changes.
-
Return to the View menu and select Refresh Connection
Statuses.
