For logon reconnect, you also have to make sure that TSOKEY00 contains a nonzero value for RECONLIM= , This is the number of minutes that the system will 'preserve' a disconnected session. For reasons lost to time, we had '0' for this parameter for a long time. Zero says not to preserve such a session at all. If you had a nonzero value already, since the default for LOGONHERE is ON, then reconnect has worked since R12. Note that you have to specify RECON in your logon request.

But in z/OS 1.12 and above it is no longer needed. In the active IKJTSOxx member of PARMLIB, you can put in the new section like: LOGON + LOGONHERE(ON) ref: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA2E2B0/61.5 <quote> *LOGON* Specifies the system settings for the TSO/E LOGON command: *LOGONHERE(*ON*|OFF)*Specifies whether the RECONNECT option on the TSO/E LOGON panel will be honored even when the system does not detect a disconnected state and the user appears to be logged on. This allows users to reconnect their session from a new terminal without canceling their previous session first, similar to how the LOGONHERE option works under z/VM. *Default:* ON *PASSPHRASE(ON|*OFF*)*Specifies whether the TSO/E logon panel allows users to enter up to 100 characters in the password field. If eight characters or less are entered, the input is treated as a password. If more than eight characters are entered, the input is treated as a passphrase. For more information about activating passphrase support, see z/OS< http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/DOCNUM/SA22-7783/CCONTENTS? > TSO/E Customization< http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/DOCNUM/SA22-7783/CCONTENTS? >. *Default:* OFF *VERIFYAPPL(ON|*OFF*)*Specifies whether TSO/E determines an APPLID for the system the user is logging onto and passes that APPLID to RACF for verification during TSO/E logon. This option can be used to limit access to different systems that share the same RACF database. For information about setting up APPLIDs in RACF and implementing APPLID verification, see z/OS TSO/E< http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/DOCNUM/SA22-7783/CCONTENTS? > Customization< http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/DOCNUM/SA22-7783/CCONTENTS? >. *Default:* OFF </quote> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
