The following rules apply: • The new username must begin with a letter and contain only alphanumeric characters or underscores. Note that usernames are case sensitive. • The new username must be between 1 and 40 characters long. • The new username must be different from any other existing account login name. For example, if you are changing the default login name ("USERID"), you must choose a name other than the default login name. • Renaming a user account login does not change the role associated with the account. For example, if you are converting an existing user name to the default login name ("USERID"), the new default login may not have all the access permissions associated with the original default login.
