Possible Cause:  The user's account is locked because the password has expired.

The network supervisor can require periodic password changes on accounts to prevent unauthorized access to the accounts. The network supervisor can also assign a grace period during which users can still use their expired passwords before having to choose new ones.

Action:  Use the SETPASS command to change the password. If the current password is used during the user's grace period, it must be changed before the grace period ends. If the grace period expires and a new password has not been set, the network supervisor will have to change the user account password.
