SUBJECT: APPC Connection
This is what we did to connect an OS/2 workstation to MVS via APPC:
**********************************************************************
The following are the changes needed to Communications Manager/2 for
communicating with ADSM via APPC (LU 6.2):
An independent LU is required for the local CP is
(example: COMPNY.J0113000).
A PARTNER LU must be defined for the VTAM LU as well as a MODE entry:
DEFINE_PARTNER_LU FQ_PARTNER_LU_NAME(COMPNY.SC30DSM )
PARTNER_LU_ALIAS(ADSMNJLU)
PARTNER_LU_UNINTERPRETED_NAME(SC30DSM )
MAX_MC_LL_SEND_SIZE(32767)
CONV_SECURITY_VERIFICATION(NO)
PARALLEL_SESSION_SUPPORT(YES);
DEFINE_MODE MODE_NAME(APPCMODE)
COS_NAME(#CONNECT)
DEFAULT_RU_SIZE(NO)
MAX_RU_SIZE_UPPER_BOUND(4105)
RECEIVE_PACING_WINDOW(4)
MAX_NEGOTIABLE_SESSION_LIMIT(32767)
PLU_MODE_SESSION_LIMIT(8)
MIN_CONWINNERS_SOURCE(0)
COMPRESSION_NEED(PROHIBITED)
PLU_SLU_COMPRESSION(NONE)
SLU_PLU_COMPRESSION(NONE);
There are 2 ways to define the communications method to ADSM.
You can specify the PARTNER LU NAME, MODE name, and the TP name in the
ADSM options file or you can define a CPIC SIDE INFO entry in CM and
just specify the CPIC entry name in the ADSM options file.
Both ways seeem to work.
The CPIC side information defined on the workstation for ADSM is:
DEFINE_CPIC_SIDE_INFO SYMBOLIC_DESTINATION_NAME(DSMMVSNJ)
FQ_PARTNER_LU_NAME(COMPNY.SC30DSM )
MODE_NAME(APPCMODE)
TP_NAME(SC30DSM);
Besides changes to CM, changes were needed to VTAM and the GATEWAY
machine.
If you have any questions, Please contact me.
