<p>The Generate Profile Token Extended (QsyGenPrfTknE) API verifies that the
caller has authority to generate a profile token for the requested profile and
then generates a profile token. This profile token can be passed to one or more
additional processes which can then use it to perform tasks on behalf of the
authenticated user.</p>
<p>This API requires the
password for the profile to be specified. If you need to generate a profile
token for a profile without specifying the password, see the Generate Profile
Token (QsyGenPrfTkn) API.</p>
<p>The Generate Profile Token API follows this process:</p>
<ul>
<li>Verifies that the user ID and password value are correct. Incorrect
password values and special cases are handled as follows:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>If the password is not correct, the incorrect password count is increased.
(The QMAXSIGN system value contains the maximum number of incorrect attempts to
sign on.) If the QMAXSGNACN system value is set to disable the user profile,
repeated attempts to generate a profile token using an incorrect password
disables the user ID. This keeps applications from methodically determining
user passwords.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>To obtain a profile token for a profile that does not have a password, use the Generate Profile Token
(QsyGenPrfTkn) API.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>To obtain a profile token
for a profile that is disabled, use the Generate Profile Token (QsyGenPrfTkn)
API.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>To obtain a profile token
when the password is expired, use the Generate Profile Token (QsyGenPrfTkn)
API.<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Generates the profile token designating the user's authorities.
<p>The maximum number of profile tokens that can be generated is approximately
2,000,000; after that, the space to store them is full. Message CPF4AAA is sent
to the application, and no more profile tokens can be generated until one is
removed.<br>
<br>
</p>
</li>
<li>Updates the last-used date for the user and its group profiles.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Resets the signon attempts not valid count to zero when a profile token is
successfully generated for a user.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>If security-related events are being audited, adds an entry to the QAUDJRN
audit journal to indicate that a profile token is created.<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>

<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
<p>The CCSID parameter on this API can lead to potential problems if coded with
inconsistent CCSID values. Passwords created using the CRTUSRPRF, CHGUSRPRF,
and CHGPWD CL commands, as well as the QSYCHGPW API (when called without
passing the CCSID parameter), while the system is running password level 0 or 1
are created using CCSID 37. Passwords created using these CL commands and the
QSYCHGPW API (without the CCSID parameter specified) when running password
level 2 or 3 are created using the default job CCSID. Using variant characters
$, @ and #, as well as other variant characters, in a user password may result
in inconsistencies when converting from one CCSID to another. When calling this
API on password level 0 or 1, CCSID 37 should be specified unless the password
string is in a known CCSID. When calling this API on password level 2 or 3,
pass the default job CCSID unless the password string is in a known CCSID.</p>
