You can log in to TSO/E without a currently valid PIN and without using pass phrases.
This use case requires a hardware token with a PINpad.
Procedure
Perform the following steps:
-
Begin to log in to TSO/E with your user name.
-
Generate a token code on the SecurID token without entering a PIN.
-
Get the 6- to 8-digit token code displayed by the SecurID token.
-
Enter the 6- to 8-digit token code displayed by the SecurID token in the Password field. Leave
the New Password field empty. Press Enter.
If the token code is accepted, a status message indicates that you must enter a new 4-
to 8-digit PIN.
Note: Do not enter the new PIN on the status message page.
-
Press Enter.
The LOGON panel is displayed and you are prompted to enter a new password.
-
Enter a new PIN in the New Password field and press Enter. (If you are prompted with a
system-generated PIN, use that PIN. You might also be prompted to use either the system-generated
PIN or your own.)
-
Confirm the new PIN.
The "new PIN accepted" message is displayed.
-
Press Enter to return to the LOGON panel.
-
Because you changed the PIN, you must log in again. Wait for the token displayed by the SecurID
token to change. Enter your PIN and generate a new passcode.
-
Enter the passcode displayed by the SecurID token in the Password field.
-
Leave the New Password field empty.
-
Press Enter.
