Hi,
does this new feature also affect the server2server communication, e.g.
for LibMan <=> LibClient?
If so, which server should I upgrade first? Or should I set all
passwords to UPCASE?
Thanks & best

Hello Sarav,
not strange, but works as designed (by IBM).
Introduced with 8.1.16 is case sensitivity for the passwords.
So, if you send a command from a server with codelevel lower than
8.1.16, the password is sent in UPPERCASE.
If you send a command from an 8.1.6 Server, the password is send as
you entered it (PaSSwoRD)
A server below 8.1.16 checkes the submitted password against his
stored one, which is UPEERCASE.
A server at 8.1.16 checkes against his stored one, which might be MiXeD.
This all is valid only for security=strict, old behaviour is
accomplished by security=transitional
So, if you have a mixed environment, change the passwords to
UPPERCASE. or update all servers instantly.

Dear Team
We have upgraded tsm server to v8.1.16 and all our automation scripts
start to fail due to invalid password thorough correct password is
provided.
If you update sessionsecurity=transition then if we try same
credential then it works but command routing will not work.
If you update sessionsecurity=transition then command routing will
work but if you try dsmadmc with correct password it will fail with
invalid password and user id get locked
Looks very strange.
