PWRETRY
PWRETRY= password-retry-limit
specifies the number of password violations that are allowed before a log on
failure is recorded. The default value is 2. You can specify a value from 1 through
10.
If a user reaches the specified limit, NonStop NET/MASTER MS sends a warning
message to all monitor-class terminals advising them of the user ID and terminal
involved.
Considerations
You can set this system parameter only during execution of the INIT NCL
procedure (before users are permitted to log on to the system).
This system parameter has no effect if there is a security exit that replaces the User
ID Management Services (UMS) functions.
Example
The following example specifies a password retry limit of 3:
