RACF lets you define as many LOGONBY users for a target userid as you like.
RDEFINE SURROGAT LOGONBY.PERFSVM UACC(NONE) and here we permit the staff to do LOGON PERFSVM BY staffx at z/VM logon screen: PERMIT LOGONBY.PERFSVM CLASS(SURROGAT) ID(STAFF1) ACCESS(READ) PERMIT LOGONBY.PERFSVM CLASS(SURROGAT) ID(STAFF2) ACCESS(READ) PERMIT LOGONBY.PERFSVM CLASS(SURROGAT) ID(STAFF3) ACCESS(READ) From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Dave Keeton Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 12:52 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: LOGONBY 8 user limitation I'm trying to determine if RACF will allow me to bypass the 8 user limitation imposed with the LOGONBY attribute of the USER DIRECT entry. I need to add operations staff to a virtual machine so they can respond to messages and other tasks. I need to allow 16 users, so I'm trying to figure out how to accomplish this.
