Fields

Table 3. Fields in MTERMNL views
Field Attribute name Description
Acquired status ACQSTATUS Indicates whether the terminal is currently acquired, released, or in the process of being acquired.
Input message rate for current sample CURIMSGRATE The rate of operator-initiated inputs to the terminal during the last sample period.
Output message rate for current sample CUROMSGRATE The rate at which output messages were written to the terminal during the last sample period.
Transaction rate for current sample CURTRANRATE The rate at which transactions were started at the terminal during the last sample period.
Device type DEVICE The terminal or session type as recorded in the TCTTE.
Number of input messages INPMSGCNT The number of operator-initiated inputs to the terminal, including initial transaction input and input as a result of a conversational read to the terminal.
Interval ID INTERVALID The ID of the monitor interval.
Input message rate for monitor interval INTIMSGRATE The average rate of operator-initiated inputs to the terminal over the monitor interval.
Output message rate for monitor interval INTOMSGRATE The average rate at which output messages were written to the terminal over the monitor interval.
Transaction rate for monitor interval INTTRANRATE The average rate at which transactions were started at the terminal over the monitor interval.
LU name LUNAME VTAM logical unit name of the terminal.
Network name NETNAME Under VTAM, the name by which this logical unit (either a terminal or a session) is known. If this field is blank, it means the access method is something other than VTAM.
Number of output messages OUTMSGCNT The number of output messages written to the terminal by either an application program or CICS.
Total pipeline-throwaway count PMSGCNT The total throwaway count. A throwaway occurs when input is received for a pipeline pool terminal and none are available.
Maximum pipeline-throwaway count PMSGCONSEC The maximum number of throwaways. A throwaway occurs when input is received for a pipeline pool terminal and none are available.
Number of consecutive pipeline-throwaways PMSGGRPCNT The number of consecutive throwaways. A throwaway occurs when input is received for a pipeline pool terminal and none are available.
Number of polls sent to terminal POLLCNT Under TCAM or BSAM, the number of polls that have been sent to the terminal. If this field is blank, it means the access method is something other than TCAM or BSAM.
Name of terminal in remote CICS REMOTENAME The name by which this terminal or session is known in a remote system.
Remote system name REMOTESYSTEM For remote terminals, the name of the link to the terminal-owning region (TOR). For sessions, the system ID of the associated remote system.
Service status SERVSTATUS Indicates whether the terminal is currently in service, out of service, or in the process of going out of service.
Number of storage violations STGVCNT The number of storage violations that have occurred on the terminal.
Terminal input-output area (TIOA) storage STORAGE Amount of TIOA storage permitted to be allocated at this terminal.
Terminal ID TERMID The terminal name as specified in the installed terminal definition.
  • MTERMNLD (from MTERMNL)
  • TERMNLD (from MTERMNLD)
Number of transaction errors TERRCNT The number of transactions associated with the terminal that could not be started.
Number of transactions TRANCNT The number of transactions, both non-conversational and pseudo-conversational, that were started at the terminal.
Number of transmission errors or disconnects XERRCNT The number of errors recorded if this is a terminal or the number of disconnects if this is an EXCI session.
