Limit the number of active sessions

[sburden]

Hi All,

I'm trying to figure out how to limit the number of active sessions for our users. There are some users who will be allowed to have one active session, others will be allowed to have two active sessions, etc... I appreciate whatever help you can furnish me.

Best Regards

If some users should be limited to one session and all others can have no limit, then change the user profiles on the 1-session users to LMTDEVSSN(*YES), and everybody else to LMTDEVSSN(*SYSVAL) (which is the default when you create a new profile).

Then, do a CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QLMTDEVSSN) VALUE(0), which makes the default unlimited sessions.

I don't know of a way to limit sepcific users to x number of sessions, other than 1.

Thanks Flapeyre,

However I do need to figure out how to limit the number of sessions, other than 1.

Do a search in the archives at midrange.com. I think this has been discussed before. I think you have to write an exit program though. The only two options I see in CA is 1 session or unlimited.
