CP will keep absorbing more work until you thrash the system to death or he runs out of paging space. FYI, we are looking at various ways to eliminate configuration-related abends altogther. Maybe generate a marquee of "The Sysprog is a Dope" on the tape drive displays.... :-) Until then you can SET MAXUSERS at the point you feel the system can't tolerate any more users, based on performance data or some sort of transaction monitor to gauge response times.
