Usage

Method	Syntax	IBM i	HP NonStop	UNIX	Windows	z/OS
Configuration File Keyword	logon option

option is the user's log on method.

Valid values for option are:

batch
Windows log on type is batch. A batch logon is provided to establish an execution environment for processes that execute on a user's behalf, but without that user's direct interaction. When this logon type is used, the user account must have the "Allow log on as a batch job" permission granted to it. Likewise, the account must not have the "Deny log on as a batch job" policy assigned to it.
interactive
Windows logon type is interactive. An interactive logon establishes an execution environment similar to one a user could expect to have when physically logged in to a workstation. When this logon type is used, the user account must have the "Allow log on locally" permission granted to it. Likewise, the account must not have the "Deny log on locally" policy assigned to it.

Default is interactive.
