Issue/Introduction
Description:
On the TPX menu, you are looking at a SessionID with an associated APPLID. You must ensure that you are looking at the same APPLID in TPXOPER. TPXOPER will list the TPX menu SessionIDs as APPLIDs, since they are defined in the Application Control Table (ACT). You need to define the session APPLIDs in the ACT if you want to see these in TPXOPER.

VTAM shows both TSOOS and TSOMV as active: (using TSOMV as example):

Explanation:
On the TPX menu, you are looking at a SessionID of TSOMV with an APPLID of UHT13 and, similarly, a SID of TSOOS with AID of UHT14.
However, in the TPXOPER display you are looking at an APPLID of TSOOS and TSOMV. They aren't the same thing. You need to look at APPLIDs UHT13 and UHT14 to properly compare.
If UHT13 is not displayed on the TPXOPER D APPL output, this is because UHT13 is not defined in the ACT, so it is not "known" to TPX. By adding UHT13 and UHT14 to the ACT, they will then be displayed in TPXOPER when using D APPLS.
(Note that the above VTAM check is on UHT13. A VTAM display for TSOMV would not show as active.)
