Importing sessions

You can import an existing session to create a new one. The existing session can be either a telnet session from Personal Communications v4.1 or later or a previously-exported Host On-Demand session.

If you are importing a session icon configured for multiple sessions, you must import all of the sessions contained within that configuration. For example, if the multiple session is configured to start a 3270 session, a 5250 session and a 3270 print session, then you need to import all 3 of those sessions along with the multiple session icon.

To import a session:

1. From the Client window, click Add Sessions, then Import.
2. Type the filename for the session you want to import, or click Browse. You can import:
   • Session files previously created by exporting Host On-Demand sessions
   • Telnet sessions from Personal Communications v4.1 or later
3. Click OK.

The session icon appears in the Configured Sessions area.

The sessions you import from other products (for example, Personal Communications) may not behave exactly as they did in the originating product. Features such as screen colors and key mappings may not be correct.
