Signing on without a user ID and password

Your security level determines how the system controls signing on without a user ID and password.

At security level 30 and below, signing on by pressing the Enter key without a user ID and password is possible with certain subsystem descriptions. At security level 40 and higher, the system stops any attempt to sign on without a user ID and password.

Journal entry:

When the following conditions are met, an AF entry, violation type S, is written to the QAUDJRN journal:
  • The auditing function is active
  • The QAUDLVL system value includes *AUTFAIL
  • A user attempts to sign on without entering a user ID and password and the subsystem description allows it
Note that the attempt fails at security level 40 and higher.
