alias
The 1 - 8 character name used to identify the session. Also, use the alias name in an ACTMON statement. Choose names to avoid conflicts with real resources.
lu_name
The names used to identify the pair of logical units. The names can be network qualified, as in network_name.luname.

Usage notes

  • The Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking architecture uses the SESSION control file entry.
  • The session must also have an ACTMON control file entry.

Examples

  • The following example defines a session called TEST1 between LU NT6DI005 and application NTV6D in network USIBMNT. 
    SESSION TEST1,LU1=USIBMNT.NTV6D,
              LU2=NT6DI005
  • The following example defines three sessions. An ACTMON statement for these entries is also required if these sessions are actively monitored. 
    SESSION RJE1,LU1=RALSNDS1,LU2=RALSNDS8
SESSION RJE2,LU1=RALSNDS1,LU2=RALSNDS7
SESSION RJE3,LU1=RALSNDS1,LU2=RALSNDS6
