CONNECTSTATUS | NOCONNECTSTATUS

Syntax Description

CONNECTSTATUS
specifies that the Transfer Status window is displayed during file transfers.
NOCONNECTSTATUS
specifies that the Transfer Status window is not displayed during file transfers.

Details

For synchronous processing, the CONNECTSTATUS system option specifies whether the Transfer Status window is displayed during a PROC UPLOAD or a PROC DOWNLOAD. This system option can be overridden by specifying the CONNECTSTATUS= option in subsequent PROC UPLOAD, PROC DOWNLOAD, RSUBMIT, and SIGNON statements.
For asynchronous processing (NOCONNECTWAIT), the CONNECTSTATUS system option and the CONNECTSTATUS= option in a SIGNON statement are ignored. To enable the Transfer Status window for asynchronous processing, you must specify CONNECTSTATUS=YES in the PROC UPLOAD, PROC DOWNLOAD, or RSUBMIT statement.
