Multi login user, restrict logon.

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Is there any parameter with which we can restrict to no. logon for a particular users for multi login.

I mean what I want is for a perticular user assigned to multi login, can only login upto 5 logon (not more than 5).

Is there any parameter for the same??

Also, a user assigned for multi login can login max up to how many log on?

I have set: login/disable_multi_gui_login = 1 and some users ID in login/multi_login_users.

Please guide.

Thanks

Dear Hari

Please find the valid input for parameter login/multi_login_users

login/disable_multi_gui_login      whether to enable or disable multi logins

rdisp/max_alt_modes                is for how many session user can login default is 6

Thanks

Hi Harikrishna,

Do you need some specific users to login with same ID at multiple terminals ? i.e. user XYZ123 will login with this ID in different computers ? If this is not the case then the solution you have opted is correct :

I have set: login/disable_multi_gui_login = 1 and some users ID in login/multi_login_users.

If this is not the case but you want the user that it could be able to work on multiple sessions using the same logon in one computer then you can set the values for number of sessions allowed using below parameter :

" rdisp/max_alt_modes"  for this default value is 6, you can change as per your requirement. However this will apply for all the users of the system of logon group.

Hi Sujit,

I want multiple login from different computers, when I set that perticular user for multi login, that user can login from 5 different computer only not more than 5.

Hope you are clear now.

Hi Harikrishna,

Understood, actually there is no available direct method for doing the same(or at least I'm not aware of) but you can have a work around in case you are using Dialog Instances for you SAP system.

You can create Logon groups for achieving the purpose, and assign the groups to those users for whom you need this type of settings.

Follow the link below for configuring Logon groups :

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/c4/3a64b4505211d189550000e829fbbd/content.htm

Once you have configured the logon groups, then edit the parameters of those Instances as you mentioned in your mail post

I have set: login/disable_multi_gui_login = 1 and some users ID in login/multi_login_users.

and then assign those users with the new saplogon.ini files in there system.

Would like to add that "we have achieved the same purpose by following Logon groups methodology" but there is no limit for a user to login like 5 or so but have mulitple logon facility.

Hope this helps you.
