Entering Session Manager commands

z/OS TSO/E Command Reference
SA32-0975-00

You can enter Session Manager commands by:
  • Pressing the CLEAR key and entering a command anywhere on the screen
  • Pressing a program function (PF) key set up to issue a command
  • Executing a TSO/E CLIST, which contains commands
  • Defining the command as the text_string of the SMPUT command
Regardless of how you enter the commands, the following rules apply:
  • You can enter multiple Session Manager commands on one line provided you separate them with a semicolon (;). The number of characters on any one line cannot exceed 512. When multiple commands are entered on a line, an error in one command does not prevent the remaining commands from executing.
  • In order for a Session Manager command to execute, it must be placed in the SMIN stream.
  • Any change you make to the definitions of the windows, cursor, PF keys, session functions, streams, or the terminal, remain in effect for your terminal session. You can place these definitions in a CLIST to be executed each time you log on.
