Run with Real Terminals

When using VTAM virtual terminals, CA Verify for CICS allows the specification of the type of terminals the test streams are to use during a run. The following commands must be issued from a clear screen and will stay in effect for any test stream run from a terminal issuing the command, or until a different XTCA TERMINALS command is issued.

XTCA TERMINALS VIRTUAL

Runs will execute only on virtual terminals defined in the CICS region. This is the default.

XTCA TERMINALS REAL

CA Verify for CICS will attempt to run on the original terminals the test stream was logged from. If original terminals are not available, that is, in use or not defined in the CICS region, CA Verify for CICS will use the next available real terminal entry. If there are not real terminal entries available or defined in the CICS region, CA Verify for CICS will use any available virtual terminal entries.

XTCA TERMINALS ORIGINAL

CA Verify for CICS will attempt to run on the original terminals the test stream was logged from. If the original terminals are unavailable, the test stream will not be run and a message will be displayed on the Run menu.
