Remote File Access
RFA/RDBA Automatic logon
With the remote file still open, issue a REMOTE:NODE1 HELLO
user2.acct2 to log on a VT session. The remote session for VT will be
completely independent of the remote session for RFA even though both
sessions are operating under the same DSLINE environment. All VT
commands will be executed under user2.acct2. All RFA intrinsics
(including new FOPENs) will be under user1.acct1. This will continue
until the last remote file on the NODE1 environment is closed.
When the last file is closed, RFA’s remote session for user1.acct1 will
automatically be logged off. The VT session for user2.acct2 will remain
intact. At this point any following FOPENs on NODE1 will be performed
under the existing VT session user2.acct2, not user1.acct1. This is because
an existing session is used before a new session is automatically logged
on.
To open files under user1.acct1 again, the VT session on NODE1 would
have to be logged off so that subsequent FOPEN to NODE1 would use
RFA’s Automatic Logon feature.
System Compatibility
The RFA Automatic Logon feature will not work unless both systems
support it. If one attempts to automatically log on to a system that does
not support RFA Automatic Logon, the FOPEN call will return FSERR
227.
