RE: Session Problem on various partitions -- MIDRANGE-L

It almost sounds like you were using another emulator product (perhaps it stored its config in a .ws file), but when "Ops Navigator" was installed, perhaps it registered the IBM emulator to open .ws files in place of your old emulator...

Thanks Vern.

I guess the user is trying to open a session to diiferent box in the same window.

Does this mean he should have different icons for different partitions saved which when clicked will give him the login screen for that partition?

Many Thanks
Darell

I'm quite confused - which emulator are you using? If it's Mocha, maybe
I can see a title bar changing. If it's the Access for i one, you never
open a session to a different box in the same window - under File you
can select opening the same workstation file or a different one. Those
will open separate instances.

So I don't understand what "...opening sessions on a 2nd session
concurrently..." means - it makes no sense when I think about IBM's
emulator. I can't figure out what the behavior would be.

A partition has no knowledge of a different partition - that should have
absolutely no bearing on this. an LPAR is effectively a separate box -
different IP address, all that.

Again, what emulator is being used?

Thanks
Vern

Dennis,

As per the user :

Each partition works fine, one at a time. When he tries opening sessions on a 2nd session concurrently, the title bar at the top displays the new session with name dimmed, the rest of the screen keeps the previous image from the 1st partition and he can't do anything on the new session.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
Darell

What happens when the user tries to have more than one? What does "cannot"
mean?

A user cannot have AS400 sessions active on more than one partition.He
mentioned that recently Ops Navigator was reinstalled on his desktop
but is not sure if this problem is occuring because of that.

Can anyone please advice.
