Console Operation

To use the CA Spool console function, you must first log on to CA Spool using a VTAM‑controlled 3270-type terminal. The user interacts with CA Spool by entering a command and receiving a response.

Various unsolicited messages can also be received at the CA Spool console. These can include messages from other operators, setup messages, and error messages.

You are in one of three categories:

Terminal operators who are logged on to a group can control that group
Terminal operators who are logged on without specifying a group can control their files and printers
Privileged operators and system operators who can control the entire CA Spool system
