Ronan,

We use a REXX exec running in batch to loop through the members of the PDS containing the Teradata production logons and generate new passwords based on date & time. At the same time, the script creates MODIFY USER statements containing the new passwords which are then applied against Teradata. We use unique logons for each process so we can better track resource usage. Our system updates around 700 userids very reliably.

You must take steps to minimize the impact to production should any one step fail. Your implementation must consider the appropriate level of redundancy and security needed for a fully automated system
