The List Signed-On Users (QEZLSGNU) API generates a list of signed-on users and places the list in the specified user space. The generated list replaces any existing lists in the user space.
When you specify a generic user name or a generic display station name, you can generate a subset of the signed-on user list. If both a user name and a display station name are specified, only entries that match both the user name and the display station name are included in the list of signed-on users.
You can use the QEZLSGNU API to get a list of users similar to that seen by using the Work with User Jobs (WRKUSRJOB) command with options STATUS (*ACTIVE) and JOBTYPE (*INTERACT).
The user space that is to receive the created list. The first 10 characters contain the user space name, and the second 10 characters contain the name of the library where the user space is located. You can use these special values for the library name:
| *CURLIB | The job's current library |
| *LIBL | The library list |
The content and format of the information returned for each member. The possible format names are:
| SGNU0100 | This format returns information about the user's job and what kind of activity they are performing. |
| SGNU0200 | This format returns the same information as the SGNU0100 format, plus the text descriptions of the user profile and display station. This format requires more processing than the SGNU0100 format. |
For more information, see SGNU0100 Format or SGNU0200 Format.
A specific user name, a generic user name, or the following special value:
| *ALL | All signed-on users |
A specific display station name, a generic display station name, or the following special value:
| *ALL | All display stations with signed-on users |
An indicator for whether or not to include disconnected jobs and suspended group jobs. You must use one of the following special values:
| *YES | Include signed-on users with disconnected jobs and users whose group jobs have been suspended. |
| *NO | Do not include signed-on users with disconnected jobs and users whose group jobs have been suspended. |
An indicator for whether or not to include signed-off users with output waiting to print. This would include all interactive signed-off users with output waiting to print and all batch graphical user interface jobs that have ended with output waiting to print.
You must use one of the following special values:
| *YES | Include signed-off users with output waiting to print. |
| *NO | Do not include signed-off users with output waiting to print. |
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error code parameter.
The signed-on user list consists of:
For details about the user area and generic header, see User spaces. For details about the remaining items, see the following sections. For detailed descriptions of the fields in the list returned, see Field Descriptions.
When you retrieve list entry information from a user space, you must use the entry size returned in the generic header. The size of each entry may be padded at the end. If you do not use the entry size, the result might not be valid. For examples of how to process lists, see Examples: APIs and exit programs.

Activity. Information about what is happening with the interactive job. Common values for an interactive job are:
| blank | An activity is not currently set for this job. The activity might have been cleared with the Change Current Job (QWCCCJOB) API. |
| *BLDIDX | The user is using a file that is currently being rebuilt. The user's interactive job will be delayed until the file rebuild operation is complete or the Transfer to Secondary Job (TFRSECJOB) command has been run. The file name is in the activity name field. |
| *CMD | The user is running a command. The command name is in the activity name field. |
| *CMDENT | The user is currently on the Command Entry display. |
| *DLY | The Delay Job (DLYJOB) command has been run, and the user's interactive job will be delayed until the time limit specified has passed. |
| *DSCJOB | The user is temporarily signed-off (disconnected) the system (for example, option 80 on the ASSIST menu). |
| *DUMP | The user encountered an unexpected error, and a printout of diagnostic information (dump) is being created. |
| *GRP | The job is a suspended group job. The group name is in the activity name field. |
| *HLD | The user's interactive job is temporarily stopped and cannot run until it is released. |
| *MNU | The user is using a menu. The menu name is in the activity name field. |
| *MSG | The user is waiting for a reply to a message. |
| *PGM | The user is running a program. The program name is in the activity name field. |
| *PRT | The job has ended but has output waiting to print. |
| *SIGNOFF | A job is ending because the user has signed off
the system, or the interactive job has ended due to one of the following:
|
| *SYSRQS | The user has pressed the System Request key. |
| *S36PRC | The user is running a System/36™ environment procedure. The procedure name is in the activity name field. |
| *USR | The user is running a user-specified function. The function name is in the activity name field. |
Activity name. The name of the program, menu, command, user function, System/36 procedure, or file being used; or the group name of a suspended group job. The field is used only when the activity field is *BLDIDX, *CMD, *GRP, *MNU, *PGM, *S36PRC, or *USR. This field is blank for other activities.
Disconnect job allowed indicator. An indicator as to whether the job is allowed to be disconnected or not using the Disconnect Job (DSCJOB) command. The valid values that will be returned are:

| 0 | The job is not allowed to be disconnected. |
Display station description. The text that describes the device description of the display station to which the user is signed on.
