Intent is to avoid transmitting a password "in the clear", even though the
intended application is local-only, between LPARs within our sysplex.  The
ID would also have the "restricted" attribute, to forestall any access to
resources via UACC.

Seems secure enough to me, but I'm still relatively new at security.
