Limit sessions

[Robert Deskin]

I suggest that you ask this as a general question on an OpenVMS forum. You don’t want to limit user logins specifically, just the number of application, in this case PowerHouse, launches.

It might be a bit tricky if you launch the various PowerHouse components separately. In other words, user 1 is using QUICK and User 2 is using QUICK. So if you have a license count of 2, user 3 can’t use QUICK, but user 3 can use QUIZ, assuming there aren’t two other users using QUIZ. So you’d need to count the individual components.

I don’t know how to do that in OpenVMS, but other OpenVMS users, not necessarily PowerHouse users, may know.
