<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>Specifies
|
|
how many incorrect signon attempts a user is allowed. A message is sent to
|
|
the system message queue if it exists; otherwise, it is sent to the system
|
|
operator. A signon attempt is incorrect whenever any of the following occurs:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>A user ID is not valid.</li>
|
|
<li>A password is not valid.</li>
|
|
<li>The user profile does not have authority to the device from which the
|
|
user ID was entered.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>A signon attempt is not counted as an incorrect attempt whenever any
|
|
of the following occurs:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>Passwords are required and the user profile specifies no password is needed.
|
|
The user receives a message saying that no password is associated with the
|
|
user profile.</li>
|
|
<li>The program or menu names are not valid</li>
|
|
<li>The user profile does not exist and the system is configured at security
|
|
level 10.</li>
|
|
<li>The current library specified is not found.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Possible values for this system value are:</p>
|
|
<ul><li><span class="uicontrol">No maximum (*NOMAX)</span> <p>No maximum number of signon
|
|
attempts.</p>
|
|
</li>

<li><span class="uicontrol">Maximum number (1-25)</span> <p>Maximum number of signon
