If STRUCM is executing as an interactive job, the workstation user is prompted for a password. If STRUCM is executing in batch, it fails.

When the password-level system value (QPWDLVL) is set to two (2) or three (3), a passphrase consisting of non-alphabetic characters and mixed-case characters is enabled. Universal Command only allows upper case characters for passwords and passphrases.

Also, characters may be incorrectly translated due to reverse representations under 037 and 1047 CCSIDs:

hat (circumflex): logical not
left bracket: Y acute
right bracket: diaeresis (umlaut)
