IBM Power Ideas Portal
This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).

Re-opened for consideration. The CPF1220 could potentially be sent to QSYSMSG or an audit entry could be sent when the user has reached the device session limit.
I do not see the reason why this shows "Delivered" there is no facility that exits on the system today to either STRWCH or DSPJRN for the message that a user cannot log onto more that one session.
Can we please re-open this for discussion and a possible change to the OS that allows for the CPF1220 to be "externalized" beyond the signon screen the user sees.
I have attempted to use STRWCH for this CPF message, the problem is that the message is not logged anywhere(that I can find).
If given a little guidance as to where to "point the" STRWCH I'm all good.
The security audit journal, QAUDJRN, already contains the information you are looking for (invalid signon attempts using an invalid password or a userID that does not exist). See chapter 9 of the security reference .PDF in the knowledge center for details.
The CAAC looked at this requirement and wonders if watches (STRWCH) might be a solution or circumvention. Watches can alert you when the message is sent and you can take whatever auditing actions you need.
Is there some reason watches are not sufficient?
