SET LOGINS
 
Sets the interactive limit (number of interactive users allowed on the 
system), or displays the interactive limit and the current number of 
interactive users.
Requires OPER (operator) privilege to set the login limit. 
  
 
Format
SET LOGINS
  
 
Parameters
None.
 
 
Description
The SET LOGINS command is not retroactive. All users logged in to the 
system before you enter the SET LOGINS command are not affected by the 
command; however, once the limit you set is reached, no more users can 
log in to the system until someone else logs out. Users with the OPER 
privilege are not affected by the limit.
If you do not specify a parameter value with the /INTERACTIVE=n 
qualifier, the SET LOGINS command displays the following information:
 
 
  
    
       
      
Login quotas - Interactive limit=x, Current interactive value=y
 
 |   
The value x represents the current interactive limit, and the 
value y represents the number of users currently logged in to 
the system.
  
 
Qualifier
/INTERACTIVE[=n]
Establishes the number of interactive users allowed to gain access to 
the system. If the parameter n is specified, the interactive 
limit is set to the value n. If the parameter n is 
not specified, the SET LOGINS command displays the current interactive 
limit and the number of interactive users.
 
 
Examples
 
  
    | #1 | 
   
    
       
      
$ SET LOGINS/INTERACTIVE=5
%SET-I-INTSET, login interactive limit=5, current interactive value=3
      
      
     | 
   
 
In this example, the SET LOGINS command specifies that only five 
interactive users can be logged in to the system.
  
  
    | #2 | 
   
    
       
      
$ SET LOGINS/INTERACTIVE
%SET-I-INTSET, login interactive limit=9, current interactive value=6
      
      
     | 
   
 
When the SET LOGINS command is entered without a parameter, as shown in 
this example, the /INTERACTIVE qualifier requests that the current 
status of the login quotas be displayed. The message returned indicates 
that the maximum number of interactive users allowed on the system is 9 
and that the number of interactive users currently logged in is 6. No 
change is made.
