SCRIPT

The terminal server's response to this command depends on the contents of the script file. At some ports, the commands in the script appear on the screen as the terminal server executes them. If the file contains a command such as CONNECT or RLOGIN, the user might see the logon banner of a remote host. The script could contain commands such as SET PORT TELNET TN3270 DEVICE to specify the type of terminal emulation to run during a TN3270 session, or SET SESSION to change the data transparency mode of a session. Unlike the CONNECT or RLOGIN commands, these commands would not necessarily cause any visible response from the terminal server.

If the terminal server cannot find the script file, or you do not have access to the script file, an error message appears at your terminal. A message such as “Temporary resource conflict - Please try again” may appear if many other users attempt to execute the script file at the same time as you do. If this message appears, wait a few minutes and then try again.
