4 APPC Subsystem Configuration
This chapter describes how to use the NM configuration manager
(NMMGR) to create or modify a configuration for the APPC subsystem.
Appendix C , “Configuration Worksheets,” provides configuration
worksheets to help you plan APPC subsystem configuration.
Step-by-step instructions for completing the worksheets are included in
Appendix C , “Configuration Worksheets.”
NOTE Before you can configure the APPC subsystem, you must have
successfully configured SNA/SDLC Link/XL or SNA/X.25 Link/XL
(including logging). Configuration of the SNA link products is described
in the SNA Link/XL Node Manager’s Guide.
You must also coordinate the APPC subsystem configuration with the
remote system configuration. The HP SNA Products: ACF/VTAM and
ACF/NCP Guide, the HP SNA Products: CICS Guide, and the HP SNA
Products: AS/400 Guide contain Hewlett-Packard’s recommendations
for configuring the remote system.
This chapter contains the following sections:
• Data Required from the Remote Configuration
• NMMGR Configuration Overview
• Configuring the APPC Subsystem
• Planning APPC Configuration
• Configuration Illustrations
• Migrating an APPC Configuration
NOTE This chapter does not cover logging configuration for the APPC
subsystem. Logging configuration is covered in the SNA Link/XL Node
Manager’s Guide.
