APPC Subsystem Configuration
Data Required From the Remote Configuration
Though these two items have no corollaries in the HP 3000
configuration, you will need them when communicating with people at
the remote site.
If you are configuring the HP 3000 as a Node Type 2.1 that
communicates with an AS/400 (Type 2.1 node), Table 4-2 lists the local
and remote configuration items that must agree.
NOTE When you configure an IBM AS/400 to communicate with the HP 3000,
you must configure the HP 3000 controller as an APPN-capable LEN
node.
Because the APPC subsystem does not support remotely controlled
sessions, you must configure the following values on the AS/400:
• For parallel sessions, the Locally controlled sessions value
in the Mode Description must be 0.
• For single independent sessions, the Locally controlled
session value in the Device Description must be NO.
