The way in which you start a CICSPlex® SM session is locally defined. Typically, when CICSPlex SM is first installed, the ISPF primary option menu is updated to include a CICSPlex SM option. In this case, you begin the session by selecting the CICSPlex SM option. If CICSPlex SM is not included on this menu, ask your system administrator how to invoke CICSPlex SM. When you start the session, the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel is displayed. The CICSPlex System Manager entry panel is shown in Figure 2.

The CICSPlex System Manager entry panel presents you with three top-level options:
These three options represent the three main categories of function provided by CICSPlex SM.
To end a CICSPlex SM session, you must first return to the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel. You can do this by issuing the command:
Quit
(Alternatively, you can use the ISPF command RETURN.)
From the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel, you can return to the the ISPF primary option menu to perform other tasks. Note, however, that if you selected option 1 (PLEXMGR) or option 2 (CPSM) during the CICSPlex SM session, a connection was established between the session and a CAS. As long as you remain in ISPF, the CICSPlex SM session is still connected to the CAS. You can return to the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel at any time without waiting to reconnect.
To disconnect the CICSPlex SM session from the CAS it is communicating with, you must exit from ISPF to the TSO READY prompt. Then, the next time you start a CICSPlex SM session, a new CAS connection is established.
