Permits a designated device to accept jobs/sessions and/or data.
ACCEPT [JOBS],ldev [DATA]
JOBS The designated device recognizes the Job and HELLO commands. The device must be interactive to support sessions. DATA The designated device will recognize the DATA command. ACCEPT recognizes the DATA parameter, but data accepting devices are not supported. ldev The logical device number of the device for which the JOB, HELLO, and/or DATA commands are being enabled.
If you omit both the JOBS and the DATA parameters, then both the JOB and HELLO commands, and the DATA command are allowed.
The operator or system supervisor uses this command to designate which devices may be used to initiate jobs or sessions and/or data. When a device is configured as an "accepting" device, MPE/iX will automatically scan the first input record for a valid JOB, HELLO, or DATA command. This feature, called auto-recognition, allows users to access the device without specifically requesting use of the device with a message to the system console. If the JOBS parameter is explicitly requested, the ACCEPT command will not be executed unless the device has been configured with a default output device. This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK. Pressing [Break] has no effect on this command. It is executable only from the console unless distributed to users with the ALLOW command.
