DEFINE_LOCAL_LU
Chapter 3 257
attempts to start a conversation without specifying a local LU name,
SNAplus2 will select an unused LU from the pool of LUs defined as
default LUs.
You can define LUs on more than one node as default LUs. An
application requesting a default LU may be assigned to any of these
LUs as available; there is no requirement for the LU to be on the
same computer as the application. However, if you are defining
partner LUs for the applications, these must be defined on all nodes
where default LUs are defined (so that the application can contact
the correct partner LU using any of the default local LUs).
If the applications require independent LUs, do not use the
default_pool
parameter to define any local LUs as default LUs. In
this case, an application requesting a default LU will be assigned to
the LU associated with a local node's CP (this is an independent LU
automatically defined by SNAplus2 for each node).
