Encrypting the password in OSLCOPTS statement

To make the password set in the PASSWORD parameter of the OSLCOPTS statement not readable, write the password in plaintext in the PASSWORD parameter, then encrypt it by submitting the EQQBENCO JCL. EQQBENCO runs a stand-alone application that checks the validity of the statement and encrypts the password.

After running EQQBENCO, set the OSLCPARM parameter in the OPCOPTS statement to the name of the member containing the OSLCOPTS statement with the encrypted password.

To make the changes effective, restart the controller.
