Sends a copy of the page being displayed, as it appeared when initially transmitted, to another terminal.
Syntax:
CSPG msgcopy tttt
Parameters:
msgcopy
The copy transaction identifier (one to seven characters long).
tttt
The identifier of the terminal to which the page is to be copied.
Comments:
A hard-copy terminal that is not defined as a paging terminal (one that displays pages when you request them) is an autopaging
terminal (one that displays all pages without your intervention). You can temporarily designate an autopaging terminal as
a paging terminal by using the NOAUTOPAGE option of the SEND PAGE command. If you do this the time the first page is to be
displayed on the terminal, the terminal is temporarily treated as a paging terminal for the duration of the message. To stop
this:
Type P/A (reset terminal to autopaging status), indicating that all subsequent pages are to be displayed without further intervention.
Type T/C (terminate current message). All pages from that logical message are purged, and the terminal is again put into autopaging
status.
P/ is the paging transaction identifier, and T/ is the terminate transaction identifier.
You can use the message-switching transaction to direct output to other terminals.
When a terminal to which you have directed a message is in TRANSCEIVE status, and is not involved with a transaction, and
is not displaying pages, CICS displays the first page of that message.
However, if the terminal is in TRANSACTION status, you can display the first page only of a waiting message by typing CSPG,
CSPG P/1, or by typing simply P/1. Here, you are using P/ as a paging command. If no page is waiting, you get the following
message:
