Add or Modify a CA TPX Profile Session

When you add a CA TPX session to a profile, that session appears on the Application Selection Menu of all the users who are assigned to the profile.

A user can have more than one session for a particular application. For example, you can have a user that has two user IDs for a TSO session. If you add two sessions with the same application ID but different session IDs, the user can manage two sessions with the same application concurrently.

Do one of the following:
- To add a session, type S sessionID on the command line, as shown in the previous panel, where sessionID is the name of the session you want to add or modify. Then press Enter.
  Note: When specifying a new session ID, do not use the hyphen character (-) within the session ID. It is not a valid character.
- To modify an existing session, either type S sessionID, or use the Tab key to move the cursor to the entry you want, type S, and press Enter.
The first TPX Profile Table Detail Panel is displayed, as shown in the following panel TEN0114.

To copy all session parameters from another session in this profile, select the application from the session list so that you have panel TEN0114 displayed, and then type COPY sessionname on the command line. Then press Enter. You will see message: MENA8017 sessionname copied. The copied values may now be modified.

The system default for each option is listed in the rightmost column, and the application default for each option is listed in the middle column. You need to type a value in the left column only if you want to specify a value other than the system and application default. If you want CA TPX to ignore the values in the system and application columns, use the Delete key to erase the underscores in the user column. You can use the Tab key to move the cursor from field to field.
