To update the IBM Session Manager system flash area

Complete the following steps to update the IBM Session Manager system flash area. This area, which is referenced by variable gcflash, may be included in PANEL definitions - the Menu and Signon panels being the most useful.

  1. From System view for a node, select the Overview tab.
  2. If required, use the vertical scroll bar to reposition the 'frame' so that the Broadcasts/Flash section is visible.
  3. If the Broadcasts/Flash section is collapsed then to expand it, click on its heading.
  4. Specify the message text in the Flash input field or, to clear the system flash area, delete any text that appears in this input field.
  5. Left-click the Set 'button', which appears immediately to the right of the Flash input field.
  6. A Response pop-up box will appear containing a message to the effect that the operation is complete.
  7. Note: The system flash area will remain current until it is updated, or cleared.
    To close the Response pop-up box, left-click the OK button.
