mcftchcn (Switch connections)

The mcftchcn command invalidates the link from origin connection to a logical terminal and links the destination connection with the logical terminal.

Before executing the mcftchcn command, the logical terminal on the origin connection must be shut down.

The mcftchcn command can be used under the TP1/NET/TCP/IP protocol.

-s MCF-communication-process-identifier~<numerals (0-9), a-f> ((01-ef))

Specifies the MCF communication process identifier of the MCF communication service controlling the target connection. No more than one MCF communication process identifier can be specified.

If this option is omitted, the mcftchcn command is executed on all MCFs. This means that the overhead required to search for the MCF communication services is added to the processing load of the operation commands.

If you want to have a configuration that includes lots of MCF communication services or if you want to use many operation commands, use the -s option to specify an MCF communication process identifier.

-f origin-connection-ID~<1-8 character identifier>

Specifies the connection ID of the origin connection. No more than one origin connection ID can be specified.

-t destination-connection-ID~<1-8 character identifier>

Specifies the connection ID of the destination connection. No more than one destination connection ID cannot be specified.
