SELECTING SWITCH CONNECTION MODES
There are two switch connection modes. Both allow
immediate connections if the requested computer is
not in use. How they respond to a request is what
makes them different:
•
Preemptive switching (Default mode)
User’s request disconnects current user’s connec-
tion to selected computer.
•
Cooperative switching
User’s request is denied if another user is already
connected to the selected computer.
To select switch connection mode:
1
At the prompt “>” in the Display Matrix screen,
type SC for cooperative
—or—
type SS for preemptive.
2 Press ENTER.
■ Note
Switch connection mode is a global command and will
affect all user consoles.
