Purpose
The VARY DIAL command
can be used to establish the following connections:
- A switched subarea connection so that LU-LU sessions can be started
- A switched connection to a type 1,2, or 2.1 device (adjacent link station)
- A CPSVRMGR session between a dependent LU requester (DLUR) and a dependent LU server (DLUS)
Operands
- CPCP
- Applies for adjacent link stations and allows the value of the
CPCP operand on the PU definition statement to be overridden. If CPCP
is not specified on the VARY DIAL command, the value for CP-CP session
support on the connection is determined from the PU definition statement
or from the CPCP start option. If CPCP is specified on the VARY DIAL
command, the CP-CP session support on the connection is taken from
the command value for a single activation instance. Subsequent activations
use the predefined values for that PU.
If the resource does not support APPN, then an error message is issued and the command fails.
The resource must be in a connectable state; otherwise the command fails and an error message is issued. CP-CP session capability is determined during XID exchange and cannot be changed after a session is established.- CPCP=YES
- Indicates that the connection is to support CP-CP sessions.
- CPCP=NO
- Indicates that the connection is not to support CP-CP sessions.
- ID=resource_name
- Specifies the name of a resource. This resource name can be one
of the following values:
- The name of the link station specified in the switched major node that specifies the NCP or VTAM® to be connected.
- A PU name that specifies a link station with a PUTYPE of 1,2, 2.1, 4, or 5
- The name of a PU supported by a DLUR
