%PWD Substitution Variable for Netport Jobs

%PWD Substitution Variable for Netport Jobs

PowerExchange 10.5.1 introduces the following change to the substitution variables for netport jobs.
The %PWD substitution variable is the password of the user ID that connected to the PowerExchange Listener, which at security level 2 is different from the user ID and password credentials used to start the PowerExchange Listener job.
As of version 10.5.1, the maximum length of the password of the user that connected to the PowerExchange Listener has expanded from 8 characters to 68 characters to support passphrases. This change affects PowerExchange Listeners running at security level 2.
If the password is greater than eight bytes, it is a passphrase. To adhere to z/OS JCL restrictions, PowerExchange processes passphrases as follows:
  • If the passphrase contains a space, it is enclosed with the single quote character.
  • If the single quote character occurs inside the passphrase, it is repeated.
