We are setting up a few SMCS consoles for remote access.
It appears that you can only logon with the same userid once. I can
understand that if it were on the same lpar,
But is there a way we can reuse the same userid to logon to an SMCS
console on different lpars (uid defined on all lpars, di
Marcel,
we have two separate LPARs and can logon to each SMCS console with the
same UID. There is no restriction.
However, the 2 LPARs have different system names (SYS1, SYS5) and we use
system symbols in SMCS definitions to differentiate between them.

Hello Marcel,
As per SYSPLEX architecture, that is "single image management of multiple
servers", the CONSOLE team have restricted console logons as one time per
sysplex.
Why do you need to logon more than once to a sysplex consoleeven if
there are multiple systems within the sysplex.

Several years ago, I asked IBM why they prohibit users from concurrent
sign-on to multiple consoles, and was told that it is working as designed.
He noted that I was not the first to complain. I hope that IBM will change
their design and allow users to sign-on to multiple consoles. Until then,

Dr. Alan Scherr told me over dinner years ago that on the final night of
testing TSO before it's first release, they had taken a "dinner" break at 2am,
and when he came back, he logged on and could enter
commands, but there was no reply to his terminal, until, many minutes later, a
co-worker acro
Too bad Dr. Alan Scherr had a tight schedule and did not have the time to
expand the design to allow a user multiple concurrent logons to TSO. Of
course, most users accept the restriction, but over the past 30+ years, I've

Thanks all for your reactions.
One more thing: I assume nothing changes with the introduction of
possibility to run consoles in Distributed mode rather than Shared mode?
