Could you please help to check the follows,

How can i check the current session value?
Any MAX limit on OpenVMS?
How can i adjust the session value?

Not quite sure, if I understand you, but the limit for a TCPIP service can be set with:

SET
SERVICE
/LIMIT
/LIMIT=n

Optional.

Maximum number of copies of the requested service allowed to run
on the system. If the maximum number is reached, any additional
requests for the service are rejected.

And to see the session limit:

tcpip show service /full ssh

(Look for "Limit:".)

Hi All,

Could anyone know the Max session value for TCPIP and SSH?

Thanks

The max value would depend on your systems capacity. Note that each ssh login causes two processes to be created.
