2000i multiple users

[smeyer]

Each time a user log on we get to users, or sometimes more listed in the pervasive moniter. Most of the time files are used by only on but sometimes the file can be used by both instances of the user. Any idea as to why?

It could be the application - if it uses multiple Client IDs to communicate to the database engine, then each client/session would show up in the monitor. This is common in multi-threaded, applications, or apps with parent/child windows. If each thread opens up the file under a separate clientID, it will show up with multiple handles in the monitor.

You could try doing a Microkernel trace to see if multiple open requests under different clientIDs are coming in. Or, check with the application developer/vendor. Linda

We are using Counterpoint POS and another company I know has the same system but only single users. It must be a configuration issue on Counterpoint. It is only showing up like this on the POS client not on corporate clients.
Thanks
