Change the status of a line.
Description
You can use the SET
LINE command to purge or forcepurge a line, to put the line
in or out of service, and to adjust the relative line number.
You
can specify a list of identifiers (see List of resource identifiers),
but you cannot use the asterisk (*) and plus (+) symbols to specify
a family of identifiers.
Syntax
Press the Clear key to clear the
screen. There are two ways to start this transaction:
- Type CEMT SET LINE (or suitable abbreviations
for the keywords), followed by a terminal identifier. The resulting
display lists the current status, similar to that obtained by using
the CEMT INQUIRE LINE command. You can then tab to the highlighted
or blank fields and overtype them with the required values.
- Type CEMT SET LINE (or suitable abbreviations
for the keywords), followed by a terminal identifier, then followed
by one or more attribute settings that you want to change. For example, cemt
s l(value) i makes the line available
for use (inservice).
Typing ? at the beginning of either the
first or second line gives a syntax prompt. Resetting the values takes
effect immediately.

Options
- (value)
- Specifies
the identifier of a terminal on the line. This request is valid only
for non-z/OS Communications Server terminals.
- FORCEPURGE
- All
transactions running with terminals on the line are immediately terminated
abnormally. Data integrity is not guaranteed. In some extreme cases
(for example, if an error occurs during backout processing), CICS® might terminate abnormally.
- INSERVICE
- The
line is available for use. Changing the status of the line does not
affect the equivalent status of the terminals on it.
- NUMBER (value)
- Specifies
the relative line number of a pooled line. It is mandatory when inquiring
about pooled lines. For information about pooled lines, see Sequential devices.
- OUTSERVICE
- The
line is not available for use. Changing the status of the line does
not affect the equivalent status of the terminals on it.
- PURGE
- Tasks
running on terminals associated with the line are abnormally terminated,
but task termination occurs only if system and data integrity can
be maintained.
