/ASSIGN Usage Notes

You can use only those forms of the command on the preceding list.

When reassigning a logical terminal, assign it to the same type of physical device as that originally assigned (3270 to batch, 3270 to browse, and so forth, are not permitted).

If a MAINID is defined as associated with more than one CPU and the MAINID is reassigned using /ASSIGN, CA WA CA 7 Edition changes only the first occurrence of the MAINID to the new CPU.

If a CPU goes down (fails) and the MAINIDs associated with it are reassigned, jobs that were already submitted and active on the failed CPU must be requeued and resubmitted by CA WA CA 7 Edition. If in a shared-spool JES environment, you can reroute such jobs through JES instead of CA WA CA 7 Edition.
