Disable Virtual Terminals

When you disable a virtual terminal, it can no longer communicate between the external product the terminal was in session with and the EPI.

To disable an EPI virtual terminal and kill any session in progress

  1. Issue the following EPI DISABLE command from a TSO virtual terminal or from a console logged on to the CA OPS/MVS ECF facility: 
    DISABLE keywords

    Communications are cut between the external product the terminal that was in session with and the EPI. Any commands in progress over the EPI session are aborted and a message is issued that indicates that the virtual terminal was disabled.

For descriptions of the keywords for the DISABLE command, see the Command and Function Reference.
