My initial purpose is to monitor the usage of Power Link, and with your approach definitely I can make use of it further for what you ar edoing.

Thanks Kevin, for your additional thoughts/advice/inputs.

   This probably isn't what you need or not related, but I'll add this to the
   thread. A while back we wanted to monitor Power LInk usage (vs. legacy
   activity).    The issue was are the people embracing for example entering
   PO's using Procurement vs going back to old habits.

   We found the MNHHDR/MNHDTL maintenance history files useful. You can query
   these directly in Power Link by user. As long as audit/maintenance history
   is active, and it already is defaulted on most areas, you can at least get
   the volume of activity being done on the client side. In our situation, we
   found two buyers not doing what they were trained to do.
   Again, not  your initial question but wonder if somewhat related.

     Dear Kevin, Rick, Joe, Josh, Rad, James,

     Thanks a lot to all of you for your responses. I'm extremely sorry about
     this delayed response. I was at a program during last few days and
     couldn't
     access the email on a regular basis due to the nature of the program I
     was
     attending.

     Kevin/Rick : Yes, Link manager gives the detail but I want to access it
     from
     a database to run my own programs for certain analysis which should
     include
     other AS/400 application access running on the server including few
     environments on Rel 6.0.

     Rad : Might be able to use it for my purpose. As you have said correctly
     it
     might be lengthy process.

     Joe : Looks I might be able to make use of your solution easily.

     Once again thanks to all of you and for the forum as well.

     Rgds
     Shuhail

     You can query the file LOGINS in AMCESSQL but you need to change the
     CCSID of your job to 37 (CHGJOB CCSID(37)).  This will make the file
     'readable' and you will have to decipher the start and stop times as
     they are linux/unix timestamps. These timestamps refer to the number of
     seconds past midnight, January 1, 1970.  There are probably some web
     scripts to convert these.

     Hi Group,

     Can some one let me know how to extract user log in and log out times of
     power link (Rel 7.8) user sessions? The file LOGINS on AMCESSQL library
     in
     unreadable. I need to accumulate the usage of Power link sessions by
     user ID
     for a given day/period.

     Thanks in advance
     Shuhail
