Issuing CICS main terminal commands
The Utilities menu includes an option to display or modify the following main terminal settings: class max tasks, runaway task interval, scan delay interval, and region exit interval.
To display or modify any other main terminal settings, select the Console option (A) on the Utilities menu (fast path U.A) and enter CEMT commands as if you were issuing them at a console. To display or modify the subset of CICS® main terminal settings, select the main Terminal option (L) on the Utilities menu or enter fast path U.L from any OMEGAMON for CICS (3270) panel. The following panel is displayed.

To display the current setting of a parameter, enter one of the keywords shown on the
panel following the -CMT statement. The current value
displays and the hyphen preceding CMT changes to >. To display the value of
another setting, replace the > preceding CMT with a hyphen and enter the keyword
after CMT. To modify a setting, enter the new value over the current value
displayed. Or you can enter the entire statement, which includes the keyword, a
comma, and the new value after -CMT. For example, -CMT
TIM,110 sets the region exit interval (ICV) to 110 milliseconds.
The -CMT SET statement can be used to issue any valid CEMT SET command in the CICs region; this does not cause a new task to be created and will work when CICS is under stress.
