Connect:Direct for i5/OS Process Statements
Connect:Direct® for i5/OS uses CL commands instead of the IBM® Connect:Direct Process language to initiate Processes using LU6.2 or TCP/IP sessions to remote IBM Connect:Direct nodes. The Connect:Direct for i5/OS statements are used in Processes where Connect:Direct for i5/OS is the remote node.
Connect:Direct for z/OS®, VSE, VM, and HP NonStop users can submit Processes to connect to Connect:Direct for i5/OS using SNA LU0 sessions. Connect:Direct for z/OS, VM, UNIX, VSE, and Microsoft Windows users can submit IBM Connect:Direct Processes to initiate SNA LU6.2 independent or dependent LU sessions. Connect:Direct for z/OS, VSE, OpenVMS, HP NonStop, UNIX, and Microsoft Windows users can submit Processes to connect to Connect:Direct for i5/OS using TCP/IP.
When writing a Process for a platform, use the PROCESS, SYMBOL, and conditional statements for that operating environment. Use the COPY FROM and COPY TO formats from the appropriate FROM and TO platforms. Use the RUN JOB and RUN TASK format of the platform on which the job will execute. For example, to run a program on z/OS, you will use the RUN JOB statement for Connect:Direct for z/OS.
Connect:Direct for i5/OS CL commands are used to initiate connections to remote nodes running IBM Connect:Direct using LU6.2 sessions or TCP/IP. See the IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS User’s Guide for a description of CL commands, their syntax and parameters.
