What is the sequence TPX uses to assign LU's (VT's) from its pool.

Products

• TPX - Session Management
• Vman Session Management for z/OS

Issue/Introduction

How does TPX assign LU's after a user logs off, followed by the next user logging on? Will it assign a different LU and not reuse a previous LU until the whole LU pool has been used?

Environment

TPX 5.4 / 5.3

Resolution

TPX 'always' starts from the beginning of the pool and takes the first available LU that it finds of the proper type and mask (if any is present). TPX does not "continue from the point that it left off for the previous assigned LU" .
