Parameter Description for LINE(nnnnn) - SNA
- COMPRESS= Yes|No
- For RJE workstations only, specifies whether (Yes) or not
(No) hardware terminals attached to this line can utilize data compression.
If you specify No, it overrides the specification of the COMPRESS=
parameter on the RJE workstation (RMT(nnnnn) ) initialization statement
for any RJE workstation that might use this line and any remote device
statement.
If you specify COMPRESS=Yes, the specification of the COMPRESS= parameter on the RMT(nnnnn) and the COMP parameter on the remote device (Rnnnnn.xxx) statements is allowed to take effect. IF RMT(nnnnn) specifies COMPRESS=oO, or Rnnnnn.xxx specifies NOCOMP, no compression will take place.
This parameter defaults to Yes, which specifies that the line allows data compression.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- CONNECT= (Yes|No|DEFAULT,interval)
- Specifies whether an NJE connection should be automatically attempted for this line. If DEFAULT is specified, processing defers to the CONNECT=(YES|NO) value that is specified on the associated NODE statement. The interval is the approximate time (in minutes) between attempted connections. The valid range for interval is 0 to 1440. A value of 0 indicates that the default interval (from NJEDEF CONNECT=) should be used. The default CONNECT value is DEFAULT, and the default interval is 0.
- Discon={NoI|INTERRUPT|Q|QUIESCE}
- Specifies whether the line is to be disconnected immediately (I)
or after it completes its current activity (Q).
- I or INTERRUPT
- A sign-off record is sent to the attached multi-leaving remote workstation or to the connected NJE node.
- Q or QUIESCE
- The disconnection occurs as though the remote operator or NJE node had signed off. This is for active lines only.
Note: You may change this parameter only if the specified line is not currently drained. - JRNUM=n|DEFAULT
- Specifies the number (0-7) of network job receivers to be associated
with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer that specifies the
maximum number of input job streams allowed to be concurrently active
on this line. This specification should match the value of JTNUM for
this line on other nodes with which this node is to communicate directly.
The sum of the values of JRNUM and SRNUM for this line must not exceed
8, or the statement is ignored.
This value overrides the default global value set by the JRNUM= parameter of the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the JRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT where the sum of JRNUM= and SRNUM= exceeds 8, JRNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.
Default: Value of the JRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- JTNUM=n|DEFAULT
- Specifies the number (0-7) of network job transmitters to be associated
with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer that specifies the
maximum number of output job streams allowed to be concurrently active
on this line. This value should remain unchanged unless it is known
that a particular user has some jobs with extremely large amounts
of input to be transmitted and other short jobs that must be transmitted
concurrently. If there are not enough receivers on the receiving node
to receive jobs over the line, excess transmitters drain automatically.
The sum of the values JTNUM= and STNUM= for this line must not exceed
8, or the statement is ignored.
This value overrides the default global value set by the JTNUM= parameter of the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the JTNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT where the sum of JTNUM= and STNUM= exceeds 8, JTNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.
Default: Value of the JTNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- LOG=Yes|No
- Specifies whether (Yes) or not (No) JES2 is to monitor this line
for channel-end completions or SNA events. If you specify LOG=Yes,
JES2 issues $HASP094 message for every transmission across this SNA
line. You should specify LOG=No if your installation performs extensive
networking activity.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- NODE=node
- Specifies the NJE node name associated with this node. This value determines which node to connect to when a $SN,LINE=xxx command is issued or the line is automatically connected.
- Password=xxxxxxxx
- Specifies
a 1- to 8-character security password JES2 is to use to prevent unauthorized
terminal users from using this line. This password can be used in
the connection request from RJE workstations. You cannot specify a
password for SNA lines used in NJE host-to-host sessions. Note: If you specify a password for an SNA line, it is meaningful only if that line is a dedicated line.
If you do not specify a password, none exists.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- REST=nnnn|0
- Specifies an integer between 0 and 2000 which represents the resistance rating of the line as
viewed by the installation management and coordinated with other installations. Resistance is an
arbitrary value set to indicate a specific line's ability or inability to route work that has
“normal” workload requirements and line speed.
Note that this parameter defaults to the REST= value specified on the APPL(jxxxxxxx) or the NODE(xxxxxxxx) initialization statement. See z/OS JES2 Initialization and Tuning Guide for details concerning resistance selection.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- RESTART= (Yes|No,interval)
- Specifies whether (Yes) or not (No) this line will be restarted if it is drained. The interval is the approximate time (in minutes) between attempted restarts. The valid range for interval is 0-1440. A value of 0 indicates that the default interval (from NJEDEF CONNECT=) should be used. The default RESTART value is No, and the default interval value is 0.
- SRNUM=n|DEFAULT
- Specifies the number (0-7) of network SYSOUT receivers to be associated
with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer which specifies the
maximum number of SYSOUT receiver streams allowed to be concurrently
active on this line. This specification should match the value of
STNUM= for this line on the other nodes with which this member is
to communicate directly. The sum of the values JRNUM= and SRNUM= for
this line must not exceed 8, or the statement is ignored.
This value overrides the default global value set by the SRNUM= parameter on the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the SRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT where the sum of SRNUM= and JRNUM= exceeds 8, SRNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.
Default: Value of the SRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- START=Yes|No
- Specifies whether (Yes) or not (No) this line, if it is ready, will be started automatically when JES2 starts processing. The default START value is No.
- STNUM=n|DEFAULT
- Specifies the number (0-7) of network SYSOUT transmitters which
will be associated with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer
which specifies the maximum number of SYSOUT transmitter streams allowed
to be concurrently active on this line. If there are not enough receivers
on the receiving node to receive SYSOUT data over the line, excess
transmitters drain automatically. The sum of the values JTNUM= and
STNUM= for this line must not exceed 8, or the statement is ignored.
This value overrides the default global value set by the STNUM= parameter of the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the STNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT where the sum of STNUM= and JTNUM= exceeds 8, STNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.
Default: Value of the STNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- TRaceio=Yes|No
- Specifies whether (Yes) or not (No) trace ID 5 will trace I/O
associated with SNA lines on VTAM® lines
and JES2/VTAM interface events, and trace IDs 21 through 24 will trace
network control connect (NCC) records.
Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.
- UNIT=SNA
- Specify UNIT=SNA to obtain a logical line. You can specify the
line availability in the following three ways:
- Make the line available to any RJE workstation (dial up)
- Make the line available to two or more RJE workstations that must contend for use of the line
- Make the line available only to a single RJE workstation
The relationship between lines and RJE workstations is controlled by the LINE(nnnnn) and RMT(nnnnn) initialization statements. For example, to define a SNA line that is to be available to any RJE workstation, specify only UNIT=SNA on the LINE(nnnnn) statement and do not specify LINE=nnnnn on the RMT(nnnnn) statement.
You must specify this parameter as SNA.
Modification: $T LINE operator command.
