Beginning a TSO/E Session

Your terminal is your link to the computer system that uses TSO/E. Before you start to use TSO/E, you need to understand how to use your terminal.

Beginning a terminal session is relatively simple. You identify yourself to the system and then issue commands to request work from the system. To conduct a TSO/E terminal session you need to:
  • Learn about your terminal, including how to enter data, correct mistakes, add or delete characters and lines, and how to interrupt operations from the terminal
  • Log on with the TSO/E LOGON command
  • Interact with TSO/E
  • End the TSO/E terminal session with the TSO/E LOGOFF command
