Operating Systems AIX Number of login times
# 8  
Old 08-02-2005
lslicense/chlicense displays/changes the number of fixed licenses. In AIX only <nr_of_licenses> users can have concurrent terminal sessions, if these are used up only root can login.

Having no 4.3.3 system here to test I can give you only general directions where to look:

It is easy to change this setting either via "chlicense" or via a SMIT panel (without checking it: i think it is in "System Environments" somewhere) , which does the same. This is a *global* setting, though, and does not work on an individual basis like the OP wanted.

The "maxlogin" parameter was the correct way to do what OP wnated IMHO. It should be stored in the ODM and hence "lsuser -fa maxlogin ALL" should show the status quo and "chuser" (man chuser) should change that.

Alternatively (don't try this at home ;-)) ) you could change the ODM directly, the commands for that are "odmget" to read the ODMs contents and "odmput" to change it.

Hope this helps.

sd_get_sessions

SD_GET_SEATS(3) 						   sd_get_seats 						   SD_GET_SEATS(3)

NAME

       sd_get_seats, sd_get_sessions, sd_get_uids - Determine available seats, sessions and logged in users

SYNOPSIS

       #include <systemd/sd-login.h>

       int sd_get_seats(char*** seats);

       int sd_get_sessions(char*** sessions);

       int sd_get_uids(char*** sessions);

DESCRIPTION

       sd_get_seats() may be used to determine all currently available local seats. Returns a NULL terminated array of seat identifiers. The
       returned array and all strings it references need to be freed with the libc free(3) call after use. Note that instead of an empty array
       NULL may be returned and should be considered equivalent to an empty array.

       Similar, sd_get_sessions() may be used to determine all current login sessions.

       Similar, sd_get_uids() may be used to determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions.

RETURN VALUE

       On success sd_get_seats(), sd_get_sessions() and sd_get_uids() return the number of entries in the arrays. On failure, these calls return a
       negative errno-style error code.

NOTES

       The sd_get_seats(), sd_get_sessions() and sd_get_uids() interfaces are available as shared library, which can be compiled and linked to
       with the libsystemd-login pkg-config(1) file.
