Dedicated Linkages

A dedicated linkage lets a command source issue commands to a target console that CA MIC selects from the console pool. However, once CA MIC selects a target console, it is removed from the console pool so that it cannot be reassigned to another command source. If many dedicated linkages are defined on external systems, the local target console pool could be depleted.

For more information about the target console pool, see the CA MIC Message Sharing for z/OS Programmer Guide.
