It describes an interactive job as the following:

Subject: interactive vs batch CPW
I have received some contradictory informations and I hope that someone can 
clear this up for me.

The new 720 models have 2 CPW ratings, one for interactive workload and one for 
batch workload.

My question is this: Is a client access telnet session (tcpip)considered batch 
or interactive? I
tought that since it is using the 5250
data stream it was considered interactive. But someone told me that since it is 
using IP, it is
considered batch.
