ABSTRACT:
In an environment using the automatic log-on function in a parallel computer system in which one application program runs on a plurality of processors, the concentration of sessions to the application program on a particular processor for which the activation has been completed when the parallel computer system is later activated is prevented and hence the distribution of load is attained. When terminals have been activated or powered on, the session establishment by the automatic log-on function is not executed even if the activation of an application program on one of the processors of the parallel computer system has been completed but the activation status of the application programs on other processors are checked or the execution of the automatic log-on function is suspended for a predetermined time period to control the execution start time of the automatic log-on function.
