Note:If you define a user for Windows® operating systems:- In composer, user names are case-sensitive only if there are duplicate names in the database. User names are not case-sensitive in conman. Also, the user must be authorized to log on to the workstation on which HCL Workload Automation launches jobs, and have the permission to Log on as batch.
- If the user name is not unique, it is taken to mean a local user, a domain user, or a trusted domain user, in that order.
- password
- Specifies the user password. The password can contain up to 31 characters, and must be enclosed in double quotation marks. To indicate a null password, use two consecutive double quotation marks with no blanks in between, ". When a user definition has been saved, you cannot read the password. Users with appropriate security privileges can modify or delete a user, but password information is never displayed.

Comments
composer extract
command are of limited
use. When you run the composer extract
command on
a user definition, the password is obfuscated with the "**********
"
reserved keyword. If you try running the composer import
, replace
,
or modify
commands on an extracted user password,
the password replacement has no effect and the old password is maintained.
Also, if you try running the composer create
, new
,
or add
commands on a user where the password equals
the "**********
" reserved keyword, the following
error is returned: AWSJCL521E The password specified for the Windows user "USER_NAME" does
not comply with password security policy requirements.
Note
that the reserved keyword is a string of ten asterisks (*). You cannot
enter a sequence of ten asterisks as a password, but you can have
a password with any other number of asterisks.To
fix this problem, make sure you run the composer extract
with
the ;password option.
