This setting is recommended for all A-Shell sites under all conditions. It generates the messages shown below noting the startup and shutdown of each session.

Notes
• | The initial "launched on" line indicates the version of A-Shell being launched, the connection device or client machine name, and the user name (either the Unix login name, or the Windows client login name). |
• | In the case of an ATE connection, the next line will show the ATE client version, ATE machine name, the Windows client login name, and a few other minor details. |
• | The "jcbrebuild #" messages are normal and simply indicate that the Job Table is being refreshed, with the # indicating the triggering event. |
• | The "In: Nodes=AA/BB/CC [P]" line indicates the number of A-Shell nodes calculated after the new session is counted. AA indicates the number of nodes counting against the license; BB is the total number of jobs; CC is the licensed node limit (which applies to AA, not BB). This is followed by [P] indicating a "Physical node" (counts against the license limit, i.e. adds to the AA figure) or [L] for a "Logical node" (doesn't count; adds to the BB figure). This is followed by the IP and MAC address of the client and the login name on the client machine. The si{p} and sm values indicate the number of other sessions originating from the same IP address and client machine, respectively. |
• | The "Out:" line indicates the number of remaining physical [P] and logical [L] nodes in use, along with a few usage indicators for the session. |
