Whenever CICS receives a command from an unknown console, and autoinstall for consoles is active, CICS searches the AMT for autoinstall models that describe a console. These models must specify a CONSNAME, and reference a TYPETERM definition that specifies DEVICE(CONSOLE). The console name in a model definition is a dummy value in the case of autoinstall, and is ignored by CICS, which passes a list of AUTINSTNAME attribute values to the autoinstall control program, so that it can choose one of them.
