Documentation
Definition
You can use this security policy attribute to define the period of time (measured in days) after which a user can change his or her password again. Only password changes that the user has requested are taken into account.
If the password is set to a new value by the administrator, the user can / must change the password the next time he or she logs on (with the exception of SERVICE/SYSTEM users).
If the system forces the password change (for example, after the expiration of a defined period or if a password change is required due to a tightening of the password rules), it is also possible to change the password immediately.
Use
Permissible values: 1 - 1000 (specified in days)
This security policy attribute replaces profile parameter login/password_change_waittime.
