When this functionality is enabled, you can change the password of a JP1 user by selecting Options and then Change Password in the connected JP1/AJS3 - View.

(2) Environment setting parameters

Table 15‒80: The environment setting parameter for permitting changing JP1 user passwords in JP1/AJS3 - View
Definition key	Environment setting parameter	Explanation
`[{JP1_DEFAULT\|logical-host}\JP1AJSMANAGER]`^#	`"CHANGEPASSWORD"=`	Sets whether the change password functionality for JP1 users is to be used in JP1/AJS3 - View.
`[{JP1_DEFAULT\|logical-host}\JP1AJSMANAGER]`^#	`"CHANGEPWDLOG"=`	Sets whether messages related to changing of the JP1 user password are to be output in JP1/AJS3 - View.

#:: The specification of the {JP1_DEFAULT|logical-host} part depends on whether the host is a physical host or a logical host. For a physical host, specify JP1_DEFAULT. For a logical host, specify the logical host name.

(3) Notes

If you use this functionality to change the password of a JP1 user, the password used by that JP1 user to log in to other JP1 products also changes. We recommend that you disable the change password functionality for JP1 users used for products other than JP1/AJS3.
Only standard users can change their passwords by using the change password functionality. A JP1 user (linkage user) whose password is managed on the directory server cannot change the user password.

For details about standard users and linkage users, see the JP1/Base User's Guide.
Only the password for the primary authentication server can be changed by using this functionality. The password for the secondary authentication server cannot be changed. If you use this functionality to change the password, the passwords for the two servers will not match immediately after the change. Accordingly, the administrator of the authentication server needs to copy the setting information of the primary authentication server to the secondary authentication server.

If you are unable to configure and run the facility for copying the setting information of the primary authentication server to the secondary authentication server, disable this functionality.

For details about the primary and secondary authentication servers, see 6.2 Ranges for setting access permissions in the JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 System Design (Work Tasks) Guide. For details about how to copy the setting information of the primary authentication server, see the JP1/Base User's Guide.
