RE: Separate subsystem - Devices not being allocated to it.

Check the archives!  What you do is create an entry for SCAN* in QINTER with
the allocation set to *ENTER.  The new subsystem should have an entry of
SCAN* with the allocation set to *SIGNON.  Now QINTER will NOT allocate the
workstation at the SIGNON screen but the new subsystem will.  Any thing else
will be unpredictable.
