ty, Kris: Sounds like a SuperSession configuration problem.
I am going through SuperSession in both instances but the terminal pools I am assigned are different in each case. No doubt I am getting a non-EDS pool. Time to delve into SuperSession.

You need to find the definition of that address in VTAM, a local non-SNA 3270 will it be. But, that has a logmode too, and I guess the logmode currently associated to that address defines a realy dumb 3270. In a previous life, I instructed my students of the VM/VTAM course to turn on the "query" bit in the PSERVIC: PSERVIC=X'028000000000000000000300' 2010/12/28 George Henke/NYLIC <george_he...@newyorklife.com> How do I stop DIAL from turning off the Extended Data Stream (EDS) terminal attribute? I have NSX32702 Logmode (NSX means Non-SNA EDS) before dialing my z/OS guest. The ISPF ENVIRON TERMSTAT Query on native z/OS shows: ISPF TERMINAL CHARACTERISTICS 14 BIT ADDRESSING = ON 16 BIT ADDRESSING = OFF EXTENDED COLOR = ON EXTENDED HIGHLITING = ON After dialing the z/OS guest with the same Logmode the z/OS ISPF ENVIRON TERMSTAT Query shows: ISPF TERMINAL CHARACTERISTICS 14 BIT ADDRESSING = OFF 16 BIT ADDRESSING = OFF EXTENDED COLOR = OFF EXTENDED HIGHLITING = OFF DBCS = OFF DBCS = OFF -- Kris Buelens, IBM Belgium, VM customer support
