Re: Extra Session and the clock symbols

2008-01-14 Thread Kirk Talman
I am on extra 7.11 using tn3270 protocol.

The format is clock:nn.n

The units appear to be tens of a second.

The values are not reliable.  During a long signon I get 00.1.  Changing 
ISPF menus gives 00.3.  Starting endeavor gets 9.4.  Splitting screen on 
two lpars on different plexes/cec's gives 00.3 and 00.6 -- guess which one 
took 3 seconds and which took 6 seconds?

So it appears the ru structure/pattern can make the numbers bogus.

but note I am on switch and it is on its own lpar.

Subject: Extra Session and the clock symbols

I have a client using EXTRA and they are confused by the two "clock"
symobls that can show up at the bottom of the screen.  I have been
looking through EXTRA Help with little luck.

Does anyone remember what the "clock-symbol" is called in the
documentation?

I know that one clock  "X clock-symbol" is for the terminal being locked
until the application responds back.  But the second clock  "
clock-symbol:00.1"  I am not sure what that means.  I thought the 00.1
was for a timing function from the pc to application and back.  But I am
not sure.


It is the amount of time elapsed from an interrupt key (most notably the
) until response. 0.01 is pretty good response time.

Extra Session and the clock symbols

2008-01-14 Thread Lizette Koehler
I have a client using EXTRA and they are confused by the two "clock" symobls 
that can show up at the bottom of the screen.  I have been looking through 
EXTRA Help with little luck.

Does anyone remember what the "clock-symbol" is called in the documentation?

I know that one clock  "X clock-symbol" is for the terminal being locked until 
the application responds back.  But the second clock  " clock-symbol:00.1"  I 
am not sure what that means.  I thought the 00.1 was for a timing function from 
the pc to application and back.  But I am not sure.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
