Transfer methods between TSO ISPF terminal sessions

You can switch between products in either windows mode or full-screen mode without exiting your current terminal session. These transfer functions make it easier to work with products in both windows mode and full-screen mode.

All of your BMC AMI Ops products are designed to work together within the same TSO/ISPF terminal session. Through commands, you can easily access data from different products that operate in either interface. Thus, you can transfer from:

  • Full-screen mode to windows mode
  • Windows mode to windows mode
  • Windows mode to full-screen mode
  • Full-screen mode to full-screen mode

Also, when working in windows mode, you can define a hyperlink to a product that operates in full-screen mode. For a list of the transfer methods available for each type of transfer, see following table:


Mode path of transfer

1 The PMGLAUTH program is required for transferring from windows mode to full-screen mode. For implementation instructions, see Transferring-from-windows-mode-to-full-screen-mode.

Note

To perform these transfers, you need to know the system that you want to access and the desired product. Convenient tables that list this information are available in the procedures for each type of transfer.
