Change SYSTEM Username

It is strongly recommended that you change the username for JMS invocation while deploying the application. The following properties should be set in the AppServer.properties file before deployment to modify this username:

It is also possible to change the username once the application has been deployed using the WebSphere Application Server for z/OS Administrative Console. Navigate to Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications and select the application. Select the User RunAs roles link. Check the everyone role, enter a new username and password (note, password should be entered in the unencrypted format here) and click the Apply button. Save the changes as detailed in Save the Master Configuration.

Note, if the username is changed, the new username must exist in the Users database table and this user must have a role of 'SUPERROLE'.

The SYSTEM user is the user under which JMS messages are executed.
