DSNT512I DSNT512I WARNING: ENTER UNIQUE NAMES FOR LOCATION NAME AND LUNAME OR IPNAME

Explanation

Panel DSNTIPR issues this message to remind you that you must enter values for the following fields:

DB2 LOCATION NAME field
The DB2 LOCATION NAME setting specifies a unique name that requesters use to connect to this Db2 subsystem or Db2 data sharing group. The setting must be unique within the network, but must be the same on all members within a Db2 data sharing group. For more information, see DB2 LOCATION NAME field.
DB2 VTAM® LUNAME field
The DB2 VTAM LUNAME setting identifies this Db2 subsystem within your network, identifies transactions for indoubt resolution, and correlates trace records. The LUNAME value must be unique for each member in a Db2 data sharing group. It is used to start SNA communications. TCP/IP communications are also started if TCP/IP PORT or SECURE PORT, or both, and RESYNC PORT are specified. To start TCP/IP communication only, specify DB2 TCP/IP IPNAME with TCP/IP PORT or SECURE PORT, or both, and specify RESYNC PORT. For more information, see DB2 VTAM LUNAME field.
DB2 TCP/IP IPNAME field

The DB2 TCP/IP IPNAME field value identifies and associates an IPNAME value with the Db2 distributed data facility (DDF). It identifies transactions for indoubt resolution, correlates trace records, and is the Db2 group RACF PassTicket APPLID. The IPNAME value must be the same for each member in a Db2 data sharing group. When this value is set, it also disables VTAM and SNA communication with Db2.

For stand-alone Db2 subsystems the default DB2 TCP/IP IPNAME setting is the SUBSYSTEM NAME (MVSSNAME) field on panel DSNTIPM. For data sharing members, the default DB2 TCP/IP IPNAME setting is the GROUP NAME (GRPNAME) on panel DSNTIPK if a member.

For more information, see DB2 TCP/IP IPNAME field

DB2 GENERIC LUNAME field
The value of the DB2 GENERIC LUNAME field specifies a generic LU name that identifies this Db2 subsystem or data sharing group in a network. The DB2 GENERIC LUNAME field value must be the same for all members in a Db2 data sharing group. For more information, see DB2 GENERIC LUNAME field.
