How can we tell if it is possible when you didn't tell us what you want to do? By "mainframe session", do you mean:
- another LPAR on the same machine?
- another LPAR on another machine at your site?
- another LPAR on a machine half-way around the world?
- a started task running on the same machine?
- a started task running on another machine at your site?
- a started task running on a machine half-way around the world?
- a batch job running on the same machine?
- a batch job running on another machine at your site?
- a batch job running on a machine half-way around the world?
- a CICS region running on the same machine?
- a CICS region running on another machine at your site?
- a CICS region running on a machine half-way around the world?
- a TSO user logged onto the same machine?
- a TSO user running on another machine at your site?
- a TSO user running on a machine half-way around the world?
- something else you haven't bothered to explain? |

Ya I mean to say on the same machine. You are working on mainframe region ABC logon with your user ID and Password.
Now can you open another mainframe Session(having region XYZ) using Rexx program with your own ID and password. |

Hello,
Why would you want to? If you have access to the "other" mainframe session, simply connect to it. You probably already have a vtam menu that facilitates this.
If you actually do this, all you've done is add overhead (multiple concurrent logins that most likely are not needed) and introduced a level of complexity that would make problem resolution much more difficult. |

It is not clear what is meant by 'region'. Please elaborate. |
