The TARGETEPWD statement specifies an encrypted password for the user ID specified in the USER statement. The encrypted password and user ID are used to access maps and registrations on the target system.
If the maps and registrations are on an i5/OS or z/OS system, you can enter an encrypted PowerExchange passphrase instead of an encrypted password. Ensure that the passphrase you encrypt does not contain invalid characters, such as double-quotation marks, single quotation marks, or currency symbols.
Use the following syntax:
TARGETEPWD
encrypted_password_or_passphrase
;
To encrypt a password or passphrase, you can use the
File
Encrypt
command in the PowerExchange Navigator.
If the DTLURDMO definition file includes the TARGETUSER statement but does not include either the TARGETEPWD or TARGETPWD statement, the EPWD or PWD statement specifies the password on the target system.
