11.2.1.1 CESN

The CESN transaction uses MAPSET CSIGNON. The following MAPSET definition must be added to the MAPSET configuration file ${KIXCONFIG}/mapsets.desc if CESN transaction is required:

  • [mapset]
  • name=CSIGNON
  • filename="<${KIXDIR}>/sysmap/csignon.mpdef"

Using this default MAPSET definition, CESN supports a maximum eight-character username and a maximum eight-character password. If the following MAPSET definition is added to the MAPSET configuration file, CESN allows a maximum 20-character username and a maximum 32-character password.

  • [mapset]
  • name=LSIGNON
  • filename="<${KIXDIR}>/sysmap/lsignon.mpdef"

If two MAPSET definitions are both added to the MAPSET configuration file, the default MAPSET definition CSIGNON is used. CESN, in this case, allows a maximum eight-character username and a maximum eight-character password.

The CESN transaction ignores the UCTRAN setting in the TYPETERM configuration file. The username and password entered from terminal are always case-sensitive, no matter which UCTRAN value is set.
