DCMT VARY LTERM Parameters

broadcast-parms

Indicates to execute the DCMT command on all or a list of data sharing group members.

Note: For more information about broadcasting and broadcast-parms syntax, see the section How to Broadcast System Tasks.

logical-terminal-id

Specifies the logical terminal to vary.

Logical-terminal-id must be defined to the system.

COMmand initiated

For batch terminals only, varies the named logical terminal to command-initiated.

DEStination

Valid options are:

ONline

Varies online all logical terminals in the same destination as the named logical terminal.

OFfline

Varies offline all logical terminals in the same destination as the named logical terminal.

Disconnect

Disconnects the named logical terminal from the physical terminal with which it is currently associated.

The logical terminal is associated with no physical terminal until it is explicitly connected to a physical terminal by means of the TO parameter of the DCMT VARY LTERM command (see below).

ONline

Varies the logical terminal online. For command-initiated batch terminals, the autotask associated with the terminal is initiated.

AUTOtask task-code

The AUTOTASK parameter overrides the autotask specification established at system generation time by the AUTOTASK parameter of the LTERM statement.

AUTOtask OFF

Requests that no autotask be associated with the terminal. OFF is invalid for command-initiated batch terminals.

Parms='parameters'

Specifies parameters are passed to the autotask for command-initiated batch terminals. The address of the parameter list is passed in register 1.

The parameters must be a 1- to 80-character alphanumeric value enclosed in single quotation marks.

OFfline

Varies the named logical terminal offline.

RESources DELete

Deletes all resources associated with the named logical terminal.

TCP/IP TRace

Specifies the options used with the TCP/IP trace facility.

ALL

Specifies data for CALls, READ data and WRITE data commands is tracked and logged.

OFF

Terminates TCP/IP tracing.

CALls

Activates TCP/IP tracing. The record is output to the log.

REAd data

The data read through the TCP/IP function is output to the log in dump format.

WRIte data

The data written through the TCP/IP function is output to the log in dump format.

TERminal initiated

For batch terminals only, varies the named logical terminal to terminal-initiated.

TO physical-terminal-id

Disconnects the named logical terminal from the physical terminal with which it is currently associated (if any) and connects it to the physical terminal specified in physical-terminal-id

USERTrace ON

Enables the user trace facility and controls the writing of user trace entries. ON is the default.

WRAP

Requests that entries written to the user trace buffer wrap to the beginning of the buffer when it becomes full. This overwrites previously written entries. Entries written to the buffer are not saved. WRAP is the default.

SAVE

Requests that user trace entries be written to the DC/UCF log file as well as to the user trace buffer, thereby saving the entries for future use. Entries still wrap to the beginning of the buffer when it becomes full.

USERTrace OFF

Disables the user trace facility but maintains the user trace buffer, permitting the examination of the buffer's contents, by means of the DCUF USERTRACE LIST command. This command can only be issued from the terminal being traced; that is, the terminal that owns the user trace buffer. terminal-initiated.
