How to update ACT entries without restarting TPX
Environment
TPX® Session Management for z/OS
Resolution
When doing updates for an application in the ACT there are a couple of fields which cannot be updated dynamically by reloading the ACT. These are:
Type (SHR, GRP, UNQ, TPX)
Keep Virtual Terminal
End-to-End Option
Readbuf Technique
Screen Even if Readbuf Technique
Inbound Compression
Opengate Control User
Load Module Name
You can recognize these fields by the missing asterisk '*' in front of them. Any changes you make to these fields become effective by restarting TPX. If you do not want this to do then you can follow these steps:
Save the changes done in the ACT entry for the application
Let all users log off that application
Quiesce the application using TPXOPER command "Q <applid>"
RELOAD ACT=<act-table>
Activate the application again using TPXOPER-command "ACT <applid>"
