NNM0770 FAILED TO ADD NEW USER userid - errtext
Cause. An attempt was made to add a new user but the attempt failed for the reason
displayed.
userid is the ID of the new user that was not added.
errtext is one of the following:
FILE SYSTEM ERROR errno
The error is a Guardian file-system error. errno is the error number.
INVALID NEW PASSWORD
The new password was invalid. The password must satisfy the following criteria:
Length up to eight characters. The PWMIN system parameter specifies the
minimum length.
Only alphanumeric characters, @, #, or $ are in the password.
The password is not the same as, or a subset of, the user ID. For example, if
the user ID is NMTRL, then passwords such as nmtrl, nmt, rl, and mtr are
invalid.
The user ID does not form part of the password. For example, if the user ID is
NMTRL, then passwords such as nmtrl01, anmtrl1, and 01nmtrl are invalid.
The password is not the same as, or a subset of, the concatenated user name.
For example, if the user name is Russell Lucas, then passwords such as russell,
rus, lucas, and lluca are invalid.
The user name components do not form part of the password. For example, if
the the user name is Russell Lucas, the components are Russell and Lucas, and
passwords such as russello, trussell, and rlucas are invalid.
Not the initials of the user's name.
Not more than two consecutive repeating characters: for example, aa is valid
but aaa is invalid.
INVALID USERID
The user ID was invalid. The user ID must be one through eight characters long,
and contain only alphanumeric characters, @, #, or $.
USER ID EXISTS
Another user has the ID already. User IDs must be unique.
Effect. The user is not added.
Recovery. Use the error text to determine the appropriate action to take.
