Operation Notes
The terminal on which the session is to be created must be available; no other user may be
logged on. The target terminal is not speed-sensed, so it must be set at the configured baud
rate.
When the session is created, nothing is printed to the terminal until you press the
Return
key on the selected terminal (unless you specify nowait). To override the need for a Return,
you can enter the NOWAIT keyword parameter with the logon string when invoking the
STARTSESS intrinsic. For example, passing the following logon string to STARTSESS starts a
session and logon immediately without waiting for a
Return:
MANAGER/
password .SYS;NOWAIT
Never specify the NOWAIT option in the logon string without first ensuring that the target
terminal is turned on and set at the default baud rate. If the target terminal is the system
console and nowait is specified, then you must have system manager (SM) capability. All
other valid terminals can be specified with only programmatic sessions (PS) capability.
