SNA IMF Configuration
Data Required From the Host Configuration
Data Required From the Host Configuration
Data in an SNA IMF configuration file must correspond to information
from the host configuration. Before using NMMGR, you should have
certain information from the host configuration.
You must coordinate the SNA IMF configuration with the ACF/NCP
and ACF/VTAM host configurations. The HP SNA Products: ACF/NCP
and ACF/VTAM Guide explains these configurations (see the list of
related publications in the preface of this manual).
Table 3-1 shows the relationship between items from the ACF/NCP and
ACF/VTAM configurations and items in the SNA IMF configuration
file. To determine whether the value of a host macro must match the
value entered in the corresponding NMMGR screen field, see that field’s
description later in this chapter.
NOTE
It is not necessary to configure TSO explicitly to communicate with
SNA IMF. All the information TSO needs to communicate with SNA
IMF is configured through VTAM.
Table 3-2 shows the relationship between items from the IBM AS/400
configuration and items in the SNA IMF configuration file. To
determine whether the value of a host parameter must match the value
entered in the corresponding NMMGR screen field, see that field’s
description later in this chapter. For more information on configuring
an IBM AS/400 to communicate with SNA IMF, see the HP SNA
Products: AS/400 Guide.
