Hello,

Most security administration does not support the same id logged on multiple times.

I probably should have used different wording. At many sites i'm familiar with, it is a security issue for more than one person to use a particular userid.

Code:
UserId IBMUSER already logged on to system XXXX
Instead of this message (and i don't recall the IKfuzzywuzzy msg no), sometimes
Code:
UserId IBMUSER already logged on at terminal XXXX. Do you wish to logoff there and continue with this session?
was presented. If the user entered 'Y', the original session is terminated and the session continues at the "new" terminal. To the original session, it would appear "purged".

if You have access to the sdsf log function use it to browse the console log


If the tso session job of the user id is purged (I mean command: P in SDSF) instead of cancelled (I mean command: C in SDSF), then is there any other way around?

I think it is an issue of accountability. For example, what are you going to do when you find out that userid 'XX1234A' is cancelling your userid? We know that there are several in use, so you cannot blame any particular user.

I think each person should have their own userid.

>Is there a reason that each person cannot have their own userid?
>yes thats right

And what is the reason that they cannot have their own userid?
