HP-UX SNAplus2 R7 NOF Programmer's Guide

Introduction to the NOF API
NOF Verbs to Manage Specific SNAplus2 Functions
You then need to define LUs that can be used for 3270 emulation and optionally group these LUs into LU pools.
For more information about defining LUs and pools, see Section 1.5.3,
3270 Communications.
To define parameters that apply to all TN Server users, use the following verb:
• DEFINE_TN3270_DEFAULTS
To define the TN3270 users that can access TN server and assign them to SNAplus2 3270 LUs, use the following
verb:
• DEFINE_TN3270_ACCESS
To define the association between TN3270 display and printer LUs, so that a TN3270E client can connect to the
printer LU that is associated with a display LU without knowing the name of the printer LU, use the following verb:
• DEFINE_TN3270_ASSOCIATION
To obtain information about the configuration of TN Server and TN3270 users, use the following verbs:
• QUERY_TN3270_ACCESS_DEF, QUERY_TN3270_ASSOCIATION, QUERY_TN3270_DEFAULTS
To delete TN3270 users so that they can no longer use TN server for 3270 emulation, or to delete LU association
information, use the following verbs:
• DELETE_TN3270_ACCESS, DELETE_TN3270_ASSOCIATION
1.5.12 Managing SNA Management Services Functions
If applications running on SNAplus2 will be using the MS API to communicate with remote MS applications,
you do not need to define any resources for this explicitly, because the node will locate the appropriate remote
applications as required. However, you can define the resources explicitly if you want to specify a particular remote
application to use.
To specify a default PU for use by NMVT-level applications (so that they access the NetView program at a specific
host), use the following verb:
• DEFINE_DEFAULT_PU
To specify a focal point application for use by MDS-level applications (instead of enabling the remote focal point
application to determine which nodes it manages), use the following verb:
• DEFINE_FOCAL_POINT
To obtain information about the focal point currently in use, or to delete a previously defined focal point, use the
following verbs:
• QUERY_FOCAL_POINT, DELETE_FOCAL_POINT
To obtain information about active applications (NMVT-level or MDS-level) using MS functions, use the following
verbs:
• QUERY_NMVT_APPLICATION, QUERY_MDS_APPLICATION
To obtain information about outstanding requests from MDS-level applications, or to obtain statistical information
about previous requests, use the following verbs:
• QUERY_ACTIVE_TRANSACTION, QUERY_MDS_STATISTICS
1.5.13 Managing Access to the SNAplus2 System from the Host
NetView Program
If you want to enable operators at the host NetView console to issue commands on the SNAplus2 computer using
either the Service Point Command Facility (SPCF) or the UNIX Command Facility (UCF), you need to define the
access permissions for these operators.
