Setting Session-Related Limits
The SESSION command (abbreviated SE) configures session-related limits and default
operating points. SESSION has the following parameters:
SESSION (SE) [MAXLIMIT = maximum session limit ]
[LOGONTIMEOUT = time in seconds ]
[CITIMEOUT = time in minutes ]
[POOL = pool-size ]
MAXLIMIT sets the maximum session limit.
LOGONTIMEOUT sets the number of seconds a user has to log on to the system.
CITIMEOUT sets the number of minutes a user may be inactive at the terminal before being
automatically logged off the system. A value of zero prevents automatic log off.
POOL is the number of precreated JSMAIN processes ready to be used when someone logs
on.
Table 7-3. show the minimum and maximum values for SESSION command parameters.
To configure a session-related limit, enter the SESSION command and at least one
parameter to change. Here are three examples of the SESSION command. They show
parameters in keyword, positional, and in combination formats, respectively.
misc>SESSION MAXLIMIT=80 LOGONTIMEOUT=300
misc>SE 200 150,,8
misc>SE 200 10 POOL=8
