The Session Manager architecture consisted of the Session Manager component, VTAM, and the 3270 terminal emulator. The Session Manager component acted as an intermediary, intercepting 3270 data streams and routing them to the appropriate applications. VTAM provided the underlying network connectivity.
Configuration was stored in configuration files, which defined session parameters such as LU names, application names, and connection details. The Session Manager did not expose any APIs. Communication occurred over VTAM using 3270 protocols.
The command-line interface provided administrative capabilities. User management was handled through z/OS security. The product is no longer supported.
The recommended alternative is CL/Supersession, which offers similar capabilities.
