Transfer Sessions to a Different Terminal

You may be able to move to a different terminal while you are still signed on and take control of your sessions at the new location. This transfer can take place only if:

• You are authorized to perform a transfer.
• The terminals involved are compatible models.
• The new terminal can access all of your sessions without violating any security rules.

To transfer sessions from another terminal

1. Go to a different terminal.
2. Display the Logo panel.

   Note: You may have to issue the /F command to sign the terminal off the product and display the Logo panel.

3. Sign on to the product as you normally would.

The software signs you on to your user ID on this terminal. Your original terminal displays the Logo panel when you finish signing on at the new one. All your active sessions are still active.

Note: This procedure overrides any terminal lock request that might have been in effect at the first terminal (see Locking and Unlocking Your Terminal in this chapter).
