RELATED IDEAS

DB2 tooling: Add a feature to control the end users ability to save a DB2 connection password in the IDz clinet.

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Currently there is the ability to disable the save password feature for connections to the RSE server using the following server side parameter.

_RSE_JAVAOPTS="$_RSE_JAVAOPTS -DDENY_PASSWORD_SAVE=true"

This feature does not extend to DB2 on z/OS connections.  The user community still has the ability to save DB2 connection passwords in the IDz client.  In Idz 16.x if we implement the server side parameter DDENY_PASSWORD_SAVE then this will propagate to DB2 connections under the host system but only when they connect to RSE first.  If the user connects to DB2 first without connecting to the RSE server, then the save password feature is allowed again.  We wish to disable the save password feature for all users using a server side parameter such as DDENY_PASSWORD_SAVE but for DB2 connections as well.

    Thank you for submitting an idea with IDz, we appreciate your input and suggestions to improve our client experiences. Many of our added enhancements come directly from suggestions from our users like yourself. We?ve spent some time evaluating this idea and have concluded that it is not something that we can provide a solution for in the next two years.
