It occurred to me today that I've never heard a 3270 audible alarm on any TN3270 session in my shop. I went looking around and discovered that Zephyr Passport (the prevalent TN3270 client here) supports "bell" and custom alarm WAVfiles.
It isn't obvious whether x3270 supports audible alarms. I'm not getting audibles out of the HMC x3270 instance connected via OSA Express2, or my own x3270 client talking to the z/OS TN3270 server. Neither have I ever heard a peep from ANY of the TN3270 emulators. Suddenly I have a need for this, as the last green screen is heading for the boneyard and the operators relying on SMCS consoles need the beeps to keep them awake. So: do TN3270 SMCS consoles support audible alarm? If so then where should I look to enable it? Is this a forgotten VTAM features or modetab thing that languishes in obscurity? -- David Andrews A.
