If you do NOT set a password expiry date, your clients' passwords (whether Oracle or not) expire according to the "TSM-wide" password expiration setting. (enter Q STATUS and look for PASSWORD EXPIRATION PERIOD to see the current setting).
If you have some clients that you do NOT want passwords to expire according to the "TSM-wide" setting, you must EXPLICITLY set the PASSWORD EXPIRATION PERIOD for the NODE to 0 (the default is blank). That stops the password expiring for that node only. Same thing for admin ids - blank means use the "TSM-wide" PASSWORD EXPIRATION PERIOD, zero means don't expire the password. Unless something has changed recently, there isn't any way to automated the password changes for the Oracle TDP. Set yourself a reminder to change them manually every so often.

I am not sure why as I did not set an expiry date on the clients when I defined them. Has anyone else run into this? Did you automate the password changes? All the clients are UNIX systems.
