CeaTsoAttn - Sending an attention interrupt to a TSO/E session

Use the CeaTsoAttn request type to send an attention interrupt to a TSO/E address space started by CEA. An attention interrupt allows you to interrupt or end a process that is taking place. This request type is useful if the client is stuck at a prompt or if you submitted a request to which the system is not responding.

To perform this request, the CEA TSO/E address space manager extracts the caller’s security UTOKEN from the caller’s environment and uses it when needed.

Table 1 lists the input callers must provide for each structure used for this request type and the output that will be provided. No other fields in the structures are used. The value for the unused fields is indeterminate. For more details about the fields listed for each structure, see Parameters.
