Completing the Dependent LU Session Types
Worksheet
A dependent LU session type is used to communicate with dependent
LUs on a host (Type 5) node. Follow these steps to complete the
Dependent LU Session Types worksheet:
1. Write the name of each remote LU with which you will communicate
in a separate Remote LU Name field on the worksheet. The Remote
LU Name must match the APPLID in the Label field of the VTAM
APPL definition statement.
The number of remote LUs you write down is the minimum number
of dependent LU session types you will need. (You might want to
configure additional session types for reserved sessions.)
2. Write a name for each dependent LU session type in the Session
Type Name field next to each Remote LU Name. A Session Type
Name must be 8 or fewer characters long and begin with a letter. It
does not have to match anything in the remote configuration. Every
Session Type Name must be unique.
3. In the SNA Node Name field under each Session Type Name, write
the name of the configured local SNA node that connects the
HP 3000 with the system where the remote LU is located. The SNA
Node Name, and the names of all the LUs associated with it, must be
already configured in the SNANODE branch of NMMGR.
4. In the Mode Name field for each session type, write the mode name
configured for the remote LU. The mode name configured on the
HP 3000 must match the CICS MODENAME operand of the DFHTCT
TYPE=SYSTEM macro.
5. For each session type, determine the maximum number of active
sessions you will need and write that number in the Maximum
Number of Sessions field. You will need as many active sessions
as you will have conversations using the session type at once. The
number of sessions you will need for each session type is
[(instances of TP1) x (simultaneous conversations with TP1)]
+ [(instances of TP2) x (simultaneous conversations with TP2)]
.
.
.
+ [(instances of TP
n ) x (simultaneous conversations with TP n )]
where TP1, TP2, . . . TP n are the transaction programs that will be
using the session type at the same time.
6. Under Local Dependent LU Names, list the local dependent LUs
that will communicate with the remote LU. The Local Dependent
LU Names you list must be configured on the node you wrote in the
