Using Link3270 session mode

Session mode allows a client to run a number of transactions using the same bridge facility.

It is more efficient than running each of these transaction in single transaction mode. Session mode supports the following operations:
  • Allocating a bridge facility
  • Running transactions
  • Deleting a bridge facility
  • Delivering large messages
  • Recovery in the event of communications failure
Note: The USERID must be the same for the whole session and must be specified in every Link3270 request.
