There are some restrictions when you use the cicsterm command.
UNIX and Linux
- 3270 field outlining is not supported.
- Window resizing is not supported. If you resize the window in
which cicsterm is running the display becomes distorted.
- CICS Transaction Server interprets cicsterm as a remote terminal.
The execution diagnostic facilities CEDF and CEDX have some restrictions
on remote terminals. For more information see your CICS Transaction
Server documentation.
- The maximum supported screen size for cicsterm terminal emulators
is 27 rows by 132 columns. This is because the Client daemon uses
the 12-bit addressing ASCII-7 subset of the 3270 data stream architecture.
Windows
- The OUTLINE extended attribute is supported only on DBCS terminals.
