General parameters > Chapter Supervisor > Parameter MAXSES2 (Number of full secondary sessions) 

This parameter defines the maximum number of secondary sessions open for a given user. Its value can be:

  • either null (in this case, the number of sessions that the user can open is only limited by the license).
  • or positive (in this case, the value of the parameter gives the maximum number of sessions authorized for the user).
  • or negative (in this case, by convention, no connection of this type is authorized for the user).

Of course, in all cases, the number of simultaneously open sessions for a user is also limited by the global number of sessions authorized by the license: the lowest limit will be applied in all cases.

SEEINFO This maximum value is also taken into account for the license "named users", unlike the value MAXSES1.

Level of localization/Global variable

Functions concerned

No function is affected by this parameter (only the connection process is impacted by this parameter).

Comments

To avoid blockages to the administration functions, the limitation on the open sessions does not apply to the administrator whose code is defined by the ADMUSER parameter.

In addition, it should be noted that the fact of limiting the number of sessions for a user slows the connection process a little for this user, the checking for the connection processes being relatively long.
