RDZ Should honor mainframe violations limit

we are running rdz76 and had a user get multiple security violations
until they reached the violation limit at which time we recevied 130
additional multiple Excessive Violations messages before the user
stopped of his own accord. On zos, if a user or batch job get excessive
violations, they are cancelled from the mainframe. partially to avoid
hackers running scripts to find datasets they are not supposed to get
to. RDZ should honor the mainframe violations limit and minimally force
the user to relogin.


Current IBM ETR is 17856,004,000

    We believe it is the responsibility of the Security software to cancel the RDz session if the Security software determines that excessive violations have occurred. Thanks.
