Specifies how VTAM® terminates a session with a hung LU. You can force an LU to an inactive state when it becomes hung during a session with an application program that has a LOSTERM exit routine but no NSEXIT exit routine.
LOSTERM=IMMED
VTAM sends an UNBIND to break the session on the first call to the LOSTERM exit.
LOSTERM=NORMAL
VTAM does not terminate the session.
LOSTERM=SECOND
VTAM allows the LOSTERM exit to issue a CLSDST on the first call to the LOSTERM exit. If a second call is made, VTAM sends an UNBIND to break the session.
