.You must match host system communications configuration parameters with iSeries™ system values. A description of the iSeries system values are in the following table. For information about configuring host systems, see the manuals VTAM® Installation and Resource Definition, SC23-0111, and Network Control Program Resource Definition Reference, SC30-3254.
You can specify some host system parameters on multiple definition statements, such as the GROUP, LINE, PU, and LU. The following table lists only the lowest level definition statement that is used by the host system.
To configure an iSeries system to a host system:
| iSeries Prompt | iSeries Parameter | Host Definition Statement | Host Parameter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mode description name | MODD | MODEENT | LOGMODE
iSeries mode description name specified on the iSeries CRTMODD command (MODD parameter) must be defined in the host logon mode table using the LOGMODE parameter on the MODEENT macro instruction. The mode name must also be included in the CICS/VS terminal control table (DFHTCT) MODENAM parameter. |
| Class-of-service description name | COSD | MODEENT | COS
iSeries class-of-service description name specified on the iSeries Create Class-of-Service Description (CRTCOSD) command (COSD parameter) and CRTMODD command (COS parameter) must be defined in the host logon mode table using the COS parameter on the MODEENT macro instruction. The class-of-service description must also be defined in the VTAM class-of-service table. |
