Example details: iSeries server with APPN connection to VTAM

Figure 4 shows the iSeries™ system values that need to match the VTAM® values when you connect with APPN. The following table describes the relationships shown in Figure 4 between the iSeries system values and the VTAM values. The values shown and described here are example values.

Note:
The actual graphic displayed in Figure 4 shows multiple controller description information. However, the following table only describes one set of controller description information for ease of understanding.
Table 6. iSeries system value relationships to VTAM values
iSeries system parameter name and value iSeries parameter value description VTAM startup parameter values
Network Attributes: LCLCPNAME = ASDLUR The value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM parameter name ASDLUR. ASDLUR
Network Attributes: LCLNETID = APPN The value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM value for NETID attribute on the CDRDDLUR parameter for Cross Domain Resource Definition. NETID = APPN
Host Controller Description: LCLCHID = 056A3271 The value for this iSeries parameter is a combination of the values for the VTAM Switched Major Node Definition parameters IDBLK and IDNUM.

IDBLK = 056

IDNUM = A3271
Host Controller Description: PRIDLUS = R5CDRM The value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM value for SSCPNAME. SSCPNAME = R5CDRM
Host Controller Description: PRIDLUS = USIBMZP The second value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM value for NETID. NETID = USIBMZP
Host Controller Description: DEPPUNAME = DA327A The value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM Switched Major Node Definition physical unit (PU) name. PU = DA327A
Display Device Description (3270 SNA Pass-Through): LOCADR = 05 The value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM value for the DA327A05 logical unit (LU) LOCADDR attribute. LOCADDR = 05
Display Device Description (3270 SNA Pass-Through): DEPLOCNAME = DA327AI The value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM LU name DA327A05. LU = DA327A05
Display Device Despcription (Emulation): LOCADR = OD The hadecimal value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM DA327A13 LU decimal value for the LOCADDR attribute. LOCADDR = 13
Display Device Despcription (Emulation): DEPLOCNAME = DA327A13 The value for this iSeries parameter matches the name of the LU, DA327A13. LU = DA327A13
Display Device Description (DHCF): LOCADR = 12 The hadecimal value for this iSeries parameter matches the VTAM DA327A18 LU decimal value for the LOCADDR attribute. LOCADDR = 18
Display Device Description (DHCF): DEPLOCNAME = DA327A18 The value for this iSeries parameter matches the name of the LU, DA327A18. LU = DA327A18
