Adding and deleting terminals

EPI functions can be used to add terminals to CICS® and delete them when they are no longer required. The user application that installs a terminal has exclusive use of that terminal until the terminal is deleted.

Adding a basic terminal to CICS is a synchronous operation. Adding an extended terminal can be synchronous or asynchronous. If the operation is synchronous, control is not returned to the user application until the install request has completed. If the operation is asynchronous, control is returned to the user application as soon as any parameters have been validated. Basic and extended terminals are described in Terminal characteristics.
