Specifies the interval since the last input was received from the terminal, after which the user is to be disconnected.
This common end-user parameter is applicable to these control statements: SYSTEM (see SYSTEM statement), PROFILE (see PROFILE statement), USER (see USER statement), and TERMINAL (see TERMINAL statement).
IDLEDisc minutes [DIRECTION IN|INOUT][WARN [YES|No|ON|OFF]]
Default: IDLEDISC 0 DIRECTION IN WARN NO
Specify a value in the range 0-1440 for minutes. 0 means that users are not disconnected from IBM Session Manager. If any other value is specified, it should be less than the value specified on the IDLELOGOFF parameter on this statement, (unless the AFTERDISC subparameter is specified on the IDLELOGOFF parameter).
This optional subparameter controls whether (activity on) input alone, or on both input and output datastreams will inhibit a timeout. If DIRECTION IN is in effect then the interval counter is not reset by screen updating.
If WARN=Yes is in effect, a warning message is issued to the user when the idle interval has expired. If the user presses the Enter key in the next 30 seconds, the disconnect does not take place.
If WARN=No is specified, disconnection takes effect as soon as idle interval expires.
