Re: QSECOFR password


DST has an option to reset the password temporarily for one IPL. You then change the password after logging on with the default. But DST requires a password too (not the same as the OS/400 password). If you're lucky, the DST password may have been left to it's default value.

The Security manual had the details. I'm sure it's buried somewhere in infocenter.

And you can just go in and change it as needed when logged in as that
person. 

Although I seem to remember via DST or doing a manual IPL there's
another workaround if that doesn't work (although I don't remember the
specifics).

Subject: QSECOFR password

In thinking about disaster recovery, if everyone who knows our QSECOFR
password is gone, and our location that we store a hard copy of the
password is destroyed, and we restore our system at a disaster recovery
site, is there a "back door" to resetting the QSECOFR password, or where
would we stand at that point?
I do not need specifics at this point, just wondering how deep of a
hole would we be in for such a situation.
