The string must be in the format <strong>name@realm</strong>. If the realm is not specified, the default realm is used. Each forward slash in the name starts a new name component unless it is escaped by preceding the forward slash with a backward slash. Forward slashes in the realm are not treated as component separators and are copied unchanged.</p> <p>Not every coded character set identifier (CCSID) contains the '@' character; however, alternative CCSID values often are available. For example, instead of using Greece 423, run the job with a default CCSID of 875.</p> <br> <h3>Authorities</h3> <p>No authorities are required.</p> <br> <h3>Parameters</h3> <dl> <dt><strong>context</strong> (Input)</dt> <dd>The Kerberos context.<br> <br> </dd> <dt><strong>name</strong> (Input)</dt> <dd>The string to be parsed.
