George, Check also your HCD definitions into zOS. The same ancient habit keeps all terminals as 3278-2, that doesn't reply correctly to queryable logmodes. The better choice is to define as 3270-X. Have a Happy New Year. ______________________________________________ Clovis

George, the Coupling Facility is not involved in managing 3270 data streams. As others have said, the problem is in the logmode associated with the non-SNA 3270 LU. For some reason, VTAM sysprogs keep using ancient logmodes for reasons they can't actually articulate except "that's the way we've always done it." For almost a quarter century, the correct logmode for any 3270 has been D4A3290 (local SNA) or D4B3290 (non-SNA). The 3290 logmodes are simple, removing all screen size and capability information from the PSERVIC field, and causing VTAM to query the terminal to determine its configuration and capabilities.
