CEMT SET TERMINAL
CEMT SET TERMINAL
Function: Change the attributes of named terminals.
Description: The SET TERMINAL command changes
some of the values of a named terminal defined in the
terminal control table (TCT). It cannot be used for APPC
sessions.
In an SNA environment, a terminal is the CICS
representation of an SNA logical unit with which CICS can be
in communication. (SNA environment means that CICS is
using VTAM or ACF/TCAM GSA as the access method for
communication with SNA logical units.)
This logical unit can be:
A physical terminal (such as a 3277)
A function of a cluster controller (such as a 3790 Type 2
batch function)
An intersystem communication (ISC) or interregion
communication (IRC) session that has been generated
by the CEDA transaction.
If you are familiar with network names, you may prefer to use
the command that uses these names. See “CEMT SET
NETNAME” on page 190.
The message “TEMP OUT SERVICE” can be displayed if
recovery is in progress for the terminal. The ”TEMP OUT
SERVICE” indicator is reset by simply refreshing the screen,
or by overtyping the “INS” field with “INS” or “OUT”. If “TEMP
OUT SERVICE” continues to be displayed, the cause of the
indicator should be investigated.
Syntax: Press the Clear key to clear the screen. There are
two ways of commencing this transaction:
Type CEMT SET TERMINAL (the minimum abbreviation is
CEMT S TE) with (
value
), CLASS(
value
), or ALL. You get
a display that lists the current status, similar to that
obtained by CEMT INQUIRE TERMINAL. You can then
tab to the highlighted or blank fields and overtype them
with the required values.
Type CEMT SET TERMINAL (CEMT S TE) with (
value
),
CLASS(
value
), or ALL, followed by one or more attribute
settings that you wish to change. For example, cemt s
te(value) i cr specifies that a named terminal is
available for use (inservice) and that it can be acquired
automatically by ATI transactions (create).
Typing ? at the beginning of either the first or second line
gives a syntax prompt. Resetting the values takes effect
immediately.

Options
(
value
)
A terminal identifier (1-4 characters) as specified in an
installed terminal definition.
If the terminal name is, for example, S201, this option is
coded thus:
CEMT SET TERMINAL(S21)
ACquired (
vtam only
)
CICS is in session with the logical unit represented by
the terminal.
ALl
Any changes you request are made to all resources of
the specified type that you are authorized to access.
ATi (
vtam only
)
The terminal is available for use by transactions that are
initiated automatically from within CICS or, if the terminal
is an ISC session, by transactions that are using this
session as an alternative facility to communicate with
another system.
AUtopageable (
vtam only
)
Pages after the first in a series are to be written to the
terminal automatically.
CAncel
AIDs queuing for the specified terminal are canceled.
AIDs representing scheduled and allocated requests
waiting in the local CICS system for the specified
terminal are canceled. However, TD AIDs with an
associated triggered task already started are not
canceled.
When a canceled scheduled request is found to have a
precursor in a remote CICS system, this remote AID is
canceled asynchronously. Message DFHTF0100 is
written to CSMT to indicate how many AIDs have been
deleted for the terminal and how many remain.
An ‘AIDS CANCELED’ message appears on the CEMT
panel whenever AIDs are deleted using the CANCEL
option of the CEMT SET TERMINAL command.
