MD17386Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Login fields are reset when logging * * into Web-based Admin Console with * * lowercase/mixed case UserId/Password * * while using Local OS Registry with * * Security On. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The local OS Registry for z/OS is RACF, which always requires UPPERCASE UserIDs and Passwords. Most MVS applications are case insensitive, so for use with RACF the expectation is that WebSphere would UPPERCASE all RACF UserIDs and passwords.Problem conclusion UserID and Password are now uppercased upon logon when using local OS Registry. Uppercased UserID continues to be used for the rest of the user's session. APAR PQ76434 is associated with SERVICE LEVEL W500104 of WebSphere Application Server V5.0 for z/OS.Temporary fix Comments
