Defining APPLID for Loop-Back Processing

If you perform PNODE=SNODE (loop-back) processing, define the APPLID to use for the processing.

The following figure shows an additional IBM® Connect:Direct® DTF APPL (CDAPP2) defined to VTAM that enables you to perform loop-back processing. This multiple definition is required because with PNODE=SNODE processing the communications name (APPLID) for the adjacent node defined in the network map must be different than the communications name (APPLID) for the local node in the network map. This example is located in member DGACAPPL of $CD.SDGACNTL.
