These topics provide the setup and communications configuration information the adapter requires to communicate with NATURAL CICS Transactions.
After you configure any VTAM definitions, the major nodes they describe need to be started in the VTAM system. If you are using AnyNET, it should be tested from the Adapter for NATURAL CICS Transactions platform.
The AnyNET product requires three major VTAM nodes for its operation. The main node for AnyNET identifies the port. The following are examples of the three nodes. Replace relevant parameters with your site specific values.
********** TCP62 MAJOR NODE DEFINITION FOR ANYNET TCP62 VBUILD TYPE=TCP,DNSUFX=IBI.COM,PORT=397 TCP62G GROUP ISTATUS=ACTIVE TCP62L LINE ISTATUS=ACTIVE TCP62P PU ISTATUS=ACTIVE,NETID=MYNET
Note: Port 397 is used in this example. On UNIX, using a port number above 1000 is recommended due to the root privileges associated with using a port number under 1000. On z/OS, 397 is the default port; it is well established and frequently used.
Keep in mind, however, that the port you use must be the same on UNIX and z/OS. For example, if 1000 is specified on one platform, it must also be specified on the other.
If CDRDYN=YES is not specified in the ATCSTR00 VTAM startup parameter file, then the name of the machine that the Transaction Adapter is running on needs to be coded in the follow node:
VBUILD TYPE=CDRSC CDRSC62 NETWORK NETID=MYNET CDRSC62 GROUP EDABGR2 CDRSC ALSLIST=TCP62P
Note: EDABGR2 is the machine name on which the server is running. The machine name must be limited to eight bytes.
VBUILD TYPE=SWNET MYNAMEPU PU ADDR=01,IDBLK=05D,IDNUM=10101, X MAXPATH=3, X PUTYPE=2, X MODETAB=MTOS2EE, X DLOGMOD=PARALLEL, X ISTATUS=ACTIVE MYLUNAME LU LOCADDR=2
LU6.2 requires two major VTAM nodes for its operation. The main node for AnyNET identifies the port. The following are examples of these two nodes. Replace relevant parameters with your site specific values.
********** TCP62 MAJOR NODE DEFINITION FOR ANYNET TCP62 VBUILD TYPE=TCP,DNSUFX=IBI.COM,PORT=397 TCP62G GROUP ISTATUS=ACTIVE TCP62L LINE ISTATUS=ACTIVE TCP62P PU ISTATUS=ACTIVE,NETID=MYNET
Note: Port 397 is used in this example. On UNIX, using a port number above 1000 is recommended due to the root privileges associated with using a port number under 1000. On z/OS, 397 is the default port; it is well established and frequently used.
Keep in mind, however, that the port you use must be the same on UNIX and z/OS. For example, if 1000 is specified on one platform, it must also be specified on the other.
VBUILD TYPE=SWNET MYNAMEPU PU ADDR=01,IDBLK=05D,IDNUM=10101, X MAXPATH=3, X PUTYPE=2, X MODETAB=MTOS2EE, X DLOGMOD=PARALLEL, X ISTATUS=ACTIVE MYLUNAME LU LOCADDR=2
For the Adapter for NATURAL CICS Transactions to be able to connect to NATURAL CICS Transactions (for both TCP62 and LU6.2 where supported), Connection and Session definitions are required. The definitions are dependent on the platform on which the adapter is running.
If you deploy the adapter on Microsoft Windows or UNIX, the connection and sessions definitions described in Using the CEDA View Connection Command and Using the CEDA View Sessions Command are required.
Note: For DPL program execution, all users must be able to access and run transaction CPMI (the mirror transaction).
The following is an example of a CEDA view connection command that illustrates what is required:
CEDA View Connection( MYLU ) Connection : MYLU Netname : MYLUNAME ACcessmethod : Vtam Vtam | IRc | INdirect | Xm PRotocol : Appc Appc | Lu61 | Exci SInglesess : No No | Yes DAtastream : User User | 3270 | SCs | STrfield | Lms INService : Yes Yes | No ATtachsec : Verify Local | Identify | Verify | Persistent
The following is an example of a CEDA view sessions command that illustrates what is required:
CEDA View Sessions( MYLUNAME ) Sessions : MYLUNAME Connection : MYLU MOdename : PARALLEL Protocol : Appc Appc | Lu61 | MAximum : 008 , 000 0-999
The MAximum parameter determines the number of concurrent sessions available to process requests. Its first value should be in the range of 4 - 255, and the second one should always be set to zero.
Note: Log mode must support parallel sessions.
