IBM System/360 User Manual

If there is only one operator at your installation, you can omit the
number. For example,
send 'important message' operator
If there are several operators and you omit the number, your message
is sent to the main operator. A message is also sent to the main
operator if no specific user is specified on the SEND command.
Displaying Session Time Used
You can use the TIME command to find out how much time you have used
during the current session. If you-enter:
time
the system sends you a message telling you how long you have been using
the terminal since you logged on.
If you are executing a program, you can use the TIME command to find
out how long the program has been running. You must first enter an
attention interruption and then enter the TIME command. The system then
sends you a message telling you how long a program has been running. If
you want to continue processing the program, press the RETURN key and
the program continues. If you want to ~top processing the program,
enter another attention interruption and wait for the READY message
before you enter_another command.
Ending Your Terminal Session
You can end your termi.nal session in either of two ways:
• By entering the LOGOFF command. to end the session.
• By entering the LOGON command to start a new session.
The LOGOFF command:
• Displays your user identification.
• Displays the 1ength of time you have been using the terminal, and
the time of day and date your session ended.
• Logically disconnects your terminal from the system. The terminal
remains physically connected and you can enter a new LOGON command;
however" terminal characteristics established by a TERMINAL command
during the previous session are no longer in effect.
The LOGON command terminates your current session and starts a new
session at the same time. LOGON must be specified as described in the
section "Identifying Yourself to the System". In this case, terminal
characteristics established by a TERMINAL command during the previous
session remain in effect for the new session.
