Valid values | Any valid password in the format 'password' |
Default value | None |
Usage
The password is used in conjunction with the user ID. For more information, see UserID.
The need for Password and UserID depends on the authentication settings on the server to which the High-speed Apply Engine connects. For more information about the authentication settings, consult the server documentation.
By default, High-speed Apply Engine converts the value of both UserID and Password to uppercase characters. If your Db2 LUW user ID or password includes lowercase characters, enclose the value in quotes to prevent High-speed Apply Engine from converting the characters (for example 'password').
