To update the IBM Session Manager session flash area
Complete the following steps to update the IBM Session
Manager session flash area. This area, which is referenced
by variable s_flash, may be included in PANEL
definitions - the Menu and Signon panels being the most useful.
The session flash area is particularly useful for informing users of
session status.
From Applids view, to update the IBM Session Manager session flash area:
- Either:
- right-click the required applid (which may correspond
to a VTAM or real applid, or an APPL
statement name), and then select Set Flash
from the resulting context menu,
- or
- select the required applid, and then left-click
the Set the Flash message for an Applid
icon on the view's toolbar.
- The Set Flash Text dialog will appear. Specify the
message text in the input field or, to clear the session flash area for
all sessions using the selected applid, delete any text that appears
in this input field.
- Left-click the OK
button. A Response pop-up box will appear containing a message to the
effect that the operation is complete. To close this pop-up box, left-click
the OK button.
- Note: The session flash area will remain current until
it is updated, or cleared.
