Does this help from HELP CPSET JOURNAL? >
3. SET JOURNAL LOGON OFF disables the logon inductor and discards the
count of logon attempts associated with terminals and user IDs that
are
not logged on at the time. If SET JOURNAL LOGON ON is then issued, no
information about previous logon attempts is available.
Note: The logon inductor is the CP facility that responds to
excessive
logon attempts with a bad password. It temporarily prohibits a
terminal or user ID from logging on.
