PRTINACTIVE statement

Use the PRTINACTIVE parameter statement to define the printer inactivity timeout. A printer connection with no client-VTAM activity for the specified time is dropped.

Telnet is initialized with a PRTINACTIVE value of 0.

The PRTINACTIVE statement can be coded in the TELNETGLOBALS, TELNETPARMS, or PARMSGROUP statement blocks. See Rules for Telnet parameter statements and security parameters for more information about the hierarchy of parameter values.

Telnet uses one timer for INACTIVE, PRTINACTIVE, and KEEPINACTIVE. See z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide for more details.
