SECTION 3 -- OPERATIONS

3.1 STARTING AND ENDING A TAE SESSION

3.1.1 Logon

To log onto TAE, a user must step through a logon sequence that is host-dependent. See Appendix A for the logon sequence appropriate for a particular host.

Following the host logon sequence, the user is presented with a menu or is prompted for a TCL command, depending upon the configuration established by the system manager.

The sequence of events associated with logon are:

1. The user executes the host system's logon sequence.

2. The proc SLOGON in the system library (or in the hierarchy search) is automatically invoked. This is the system logon procedure.

3. SLOGON does installation-dependent initialization and then invokes ULOGON, the user's logon proc.

4. The ULOGON proc is located via the standard hierarchy search. If present in the user library, ULOGON performs user-specific logon initialization.

5. ULOGON may terminate with a MENU command or return to SLOGON.

3.1.2 Logoff

To exit TAE and the host operating system, the user types LOGOFF.

When processing the LOGOFF command, TAE invokes the SLOGOFF proc in the system proc library. SLOGOFF does installation-dependent processing and invokes the user's ULOGOFF proc. ULOGOFF, like ULOGON, is located using the standard proc hierarchy search.
