RTE_SECURITY_FOLD_PASSWORD_FLAG

Folds passwords to uppercase.

By default, TMS:Engine folds logon passwords to uppercase. However, IBM® RACF® V1.7 and later supports mixed-case passwords.

If you want to use mixed-case passwords and if all your monitoring agents support them, set the RTE_SECURITY_FOLD_PASSWORD_FLAG to N.

If any of your monitoring agents do not support mixed-case passwords, do not activate the SETROPTS PASSWORD(MIXEDCASE) option in RACF and do not enable mixed-case passwords in your runtime environments. Use the default value of Y for this parameter.
