Use of the term connection z/OS MVS Programming: Sysplex Services Guide SA23-1400-00 |
|
The XCF Note Pad Services use terms and concepts similar to those used by the Sysplex Services for Data Sharing (XES). Although the terms and concepts are similar, they are not the same. This similarity could be a source of confusion to those who are familiar with the terms and concepts as used by XES. Most of the confusion will arise over the interpretation and use of the term connection. Both services use this term to express a similar idea. With XES, a connection must be established in order to access a coupling facility structure. With the XCF Note Pad Services, a connection must be established in order to access a note pad. The fact that XCF Note Pad Services establish a XES connection to support the note pad connection tends to further compound the confusion. The key distinctions between the two notions of connection are
listed below:
In the context of a note pad, the term connection refers to a note pad connection. When referring to a connection to a coupling facility structure, the terms XES connection or IXLCONN connection are used. |
