Running the Terminal Interface Manager on more than one LPAR on the same VTAM network
This topic describes the modifications you need to make to the steps described in Defining the Terminal Interface Manager APPL definition statements, Starting the z/OS Debugger Terminal Interface Manager as a dedicated terminal, and Configuring the TN3270 Telnet Server to access the Terminal Interface Manager in order to make full-screen mode using a dedicated terminal with Terminal Interface Manager work in an environment where you want to run the Terminal Interface Manager on more than one LPAR in the same VTAM® network.
Do the following steps for each additional instance of the Terminal Interface Manager:
- In Defining the Terminal Interface Manager APPL definition statements, after you have copied EQAWSESS
into a new or existing member, modify it so that you specify an ACB
name other than the default EQASESSM.
By default, z/OS® Debugger assumes you work in an environment where you use only one instance of Terminal Interface Manager and the default ACB name used by this instance of Terminal Interface Manager and z/OS Debugger is EQASESSM. By specifying the ACB name used by the Terminal Interface Manager (instead of using the default name), you can create a unique ACB name for each instance of the Terminal Interface Manager.
- In Starting the z/OS Debugger Terminal Interface Manager as a dedicated terminal, after you copy
the EQAYSESM member to the SYS1.PROCLIB data set, modify it to specify
the new ACB name you created in step 1 by specifying
OPTS='-a XXXXXXXX', where XXXXXXXX is the new ACB name. - In Configuring the TN3270 Telnet Server to access the Terminal Interface Manager, when you modify the TCP/IP TN3270 server's configuration file, modify the DEFAULTAPPL statement to specify the ACB name you created in step 1, instead of EQASESSM.
- Specify the EQAOPTS
TIMACBcommand, as described in TIMACB, using the new ACB name you created in step 1 for ACB-name.
