Accessing Remote Queues
The CMS Communications
Directory serves as the repository for APPC/VM-related
information associated with network-level queues. CMS uses the value
of the :sdn.
tag from $QUEUES$ NAMES as a symbolic destination name for use with
the CMS Communications
Directory. The CMS Communications
Directory gives the APPC/VM naming and addressing
information needed to reach the remote queue.
The CMS Communications Directory entries describing remote instances of CMS must be set up as private resource manager entries. The format of these entries varies according to the relative locations (same collection, different collections, and so forth) of the two carriers. For more information on setting up private resource manager entries in the CMS Communications Directory, see z/VM: Connectivity.
The APPC/VM carrier uses the value of the :qn.
tag
from $QUEUES$ NAMES as the name of the queue at the remote location. It passes that name to the remote
instance of CMS for its use in finding the queue.
