Question & Answer


Question

How does VTAM need to be configured to support the TN3270E server?

Answer

If the TN3270E server is going to acquire LUs on behalf of a TN3270E client, then VTAM must be configured to allow such LUs to be generated.

A sample VTAMLST member is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. VTAMLST example for TN3270E LUs

  • VTAMLST SAMPLE DEFINITION for TN3270 LUs


TELAPPL VBUILD TYPE=APPL

TCP* APPL AUTH=NVPACE, EAS=1,PARSESS=NO, MODETAB=ISTINCLM,SESSLIM=YES

LUT* APPL AUTH=NVPACE,EAS=1,PARSESS=NO, MODETAB=ISTINCLM,SESSLIM=YES

PRT* APPL AUTH=NVPACE,EAS=1,PARSESS=NO, MODETAB=ISTINCLM,SESSLIM=YES

The definitions in this member are for an APPL major node. The TN3270E server uses these application LUs to function like terminal LUs.

The LU names coded in VTAMLST must match any LU names generated via the mapping statements in the BEGINVTAM statement block.
