1. The TERMINAL MORE command will give you an error message, HCP006E, if
you enter it on a TTY device.
2. If you specify MORE values other than 50 10 on a SNA terminal controlled by a
VTAM Service Machine that does not support the TERMINAL MORE command,
message HCP006E is issued.
3. If you modify the MORE values to something other than the default values of 50
10 and reconnect to a SNA terminal controlled by a VTAM Service Machine that
does not support the TERMINAL MORE command, message HCP2555I is
issued to inform you that the MORE values have changed back to 50 10.
4. See “TERMINAL HOLD” on page 1588 for information on how to prevent CP
from presenting a HOLDING status when the terminal screen fills up and
highlighted messages appear on the screen.
