NetBase for MPE Reference Guide

INTRODUCTION
Welcome to NetBase
NetBase is comprehensive networking software consisting of five major services. The NetBase
services allow a network of Hewlett-Packard commercial computers to work together acting as one
large system. The NetBase services are:
• NetBase Shadowing
• Network File Access
• NetBase Spooling
• NetBase AutoRPM
• NetBase Statistics
Two other NetBase services are available: NetBase SQL Shadowing, a NetBase module that allows
the shadowing of Allbase databases; and NetBase Client, an environment-specific service that allows
PC applications and UNIX systems to access data on Hewlett-Packard mainframes. These services
are briefly described later in this chapter but are not referenced in this guide. For reference
information on these services, see the NetBase SQL Shadowing Reference Guide and the NetBase
Client Reference Guide.
