Generally if one has SDSF facility we can find out whether a person is in mainframe session thru Spool.

Anu wants to tell you that, you can check whether teh person is logoff his/her id from mainframe. Juts follow the following steps

Go to you SDSF
Enter
Code:
Pre *, Owner *

and
Code:
DA


It will give you all the job name.

After that you can check specific Id.
Code:
Pre Kothari

If you will get the job name =KOthari it means Kothari is still actiove.

Hope it clear.

Regards
Rupesh

Another way can be sending a quick message to the user thru TSO.

But priyesh! Is this true always? In our shop we can get an immediate message saying the user is offline. I heard that it depends on settings and one can send messages to the users even if they are offline. And the users can see the message later when he/she logs in!

Anu,

Check HELP SEND in TSO. There are different ways in sending the message. You yourself decide whether tou want immediate respond or not. In fact this method I always use to find out if somebody is logged on to TSO.

Cheers,

Hmm.Looks u didn't get the point. Let me explain you. Just go to the spool saying
Code:
s;st.
Then suppose the person's userid whom you want to find out whether he is logged off is ABCD123 then:

say:
Code:
pre ABCD123
in spool. If he/she is online u will get one listed job. Otherwise u won't find any job in the spool.


Regarding sending the message it depends on settings AFAIK. This works in our shop.

If we try to send any message to the user who is logged off we will get the following message:

" IKJ55072I USER(S) ABCD123 NOT LOGGED ON OR TERMINAL DISCONNECTED, MESSAGE CANCE
LLED
*** "

HTH,
