EXTSEC—Extended security
Use the Modify Extended Security panel or the EXTSEC command to specify the content of the error message returned to a network client when a DDF connection request fails because of a security error. This command also specifies whether DDF permits end users to update their RACF password by using the DRDA password change function. This element can be useful if third-party products require the extended security ZPARM to be enabled to provide detailed security-related error messages from DRDA.
