That brings up another question, can AUTOLOG1 have a password of AUTOONLY?

This pre-dates the ability to configure the autolog user ID in SYSTEM CONFIG. Using a more modern view, installing an ESM would cause you to change SYSTEM CONFIG to contain SYSTEM_USERIDS STARTUP RACFVM AUTOLOG and RACFVM would bring up AUTOLOG1. But there is no way to configure RACF to bring up AUTOLOG1, so that would have to be addressed. I've never gotten a complaint about the AUTOLOG1/2 issue, so I haven't worried about it. There is still an outstanding requirement that IBM provide some sort of data in the default user directory that will more easily allow you to identify IBM-generated user IDs and their purpose.
