I could be logged onto one system per MAS (some sysplexes have systems without shared spool), but if a problem comes up, it's nice to be logged on. That doesn't include other applications I may be logged onto (3270 ibmlink, netviews, monitors, etc.). It's also nice to have a trigger to jump to the exact session I want instead of having to weed through alt+tab to figure out the correct one. Also... the "disconnect" issue already mentioned. Since I just put my laptop to sleep and take it home with me, I would lose all those sessions each day if I was not logged on from a session manager. Could I live with one? Yes. Would I want to in a large environment? No way.
