RENUMDUP

Description

Allows the user to specify a starting number for renumbering any duplicate sessions encountered during display on the main menu.

Note: No permanent change is made to the configuration files.

This parameter is applicable to the USER control statement (see USER statement).

Format

RENUMDUP nnnn

Default: None.

Usage

If sessions are duplicated, they will normally be excluded from the main menu display. To specify a starting number for renumbering any duplicate sessions encountered during the main menu display, specify a value of nnnn from 1 to 9999.

If this parameter is not present, duplicate sessions will be ignored.

For example, assume the user has three profiles:

PROFA with sessions 101-105

PROFB with sessions 101-105

PROFC with sessions 201-205

If the user applies the RENUMDUP 201 configuration parameter, the PROFB sessions would be renumbered to 206-210. This is because the 201-205 sessions already exist in PROFC and are not duplicates, therefore the first available session number to use for renumbering of duplicates is 206.

If the number of duplicate sessions encountered has caused the next available number to exceed 9999 (the upper limit for RENUMDUP) then any further duplicate sessions encountered will be ignored and message 4236 will be issued to the audit log when the user signs on. To see all duplicate sessions, if possible, reduce the starting point number on the RENUMDUP parameter to allow for the number of duplicate sessions required.
