Starting sessions

To start additional sessions, you can:

• Use the SESSIONS keyword on the OMVS command to specify the number of sessions you want started automatically when you log into the shell. By writing a small REXX program or CLIST, you can customize your invocation of the OMVS command so that every time you log into the shell multiple sessions are started.
• Use the OPEN subcommand during a session. This starts another shell session and automatically switches to it. The session is automatically assigned the next unused session number.
