After you sign on to CA TPX, the TPX Menu is displayed. From this menu (shown in the next section), you can start or "activate" one or more sessions and issue commands. A session is a connection between a virtual terminal and a VTAM application. By using virtual terminals, the product can run a number of active sessions concurrently.
In most cases, when you start a session, your terminal is automatically switched to that session. This means that the first screen of that session appears on your terminal, as it would if you were not using the product. Any other active sessions remain active, even though they are not displayed on your screen.
When you start a session, any logon ACL/E program for that session is automatically started. Your administrator has information about the ACL/E programs at your site. An ACL/E program might automatically log you on to the application and issue commands in the session. ACL/E programs might also automatically start sessions when you sign on to the product.
This chapter describes the different ways to start sessions and how to switch from session to session.
