Symptom: Column "DST PASSWORD RESET" is not populated on DST Security Officer Password Reset report

Cause: The column "DST PASSWORD RESET" is populated with 'Y' only when command CHGDSTPWD is used by QSECOFR.

Fix: When command CHGDSTPWD is used by QSECOFR, the column "DST PASSWORD RESET" is populated with 'Y' and the report column "Entry Type" will have an 'A'.

If command STRSST is used to change the password, either using F9=Change Password or option 8 (Work with service tools user IDs and Devices), the report column "Entry Type" will have a 'P' and the column "DST PASSWORD RESET" will not be populated.

The possible values for the "Entry Type" column are:

A - Reset of a service tools user ID password.
C - Changed to a service tools user ID.
P - Service tools user ID password was changed.

The Use of Service Tools (STRSST) also generates an event (journal entry type ST). To report on ST events, run the Use of Service Tools report found on PSMENU, options 1, 1, 5, 1, and 11.
