Writing a program to control autoinstall of terminals

Considerations common to all user-replaceable programs

Note that the comments contained in General notes about user-replaceable programs apply to this section.

This section describes how to write a program to control the automatic installation of locally-attached VTAM® terminals (including APPC single-session devices). For information about controlling the automatic installation of local APPC connections that are initiated by BIND requests, see Writing a program to control autoinstall of APPC connections. For information about controlling the installation of shipped terminals and connections, see Writing a program to control autoinstall of shipped terminals. For information about controlling the installation of virtual terminals used by the CICS® Client products and the 3270 bridge , see Writing a program to control autoinstall of virtual terminals.

The section is divided into the following sections:

  1. Autoinstalling terminals--preliminary considerations.
  2. The autoinstall control program at INSTALL. This contains:
  3. The autoinstall control program at DELETE.
  4. Naming, testing, and debugging your autoinstall control program.
  5. The sample autoinstall control programs for terminals.
