   '-CPNAME--=--control_point_name-'   

Identifies the resource's owning control point name. To allow definition of casually connected resources, this operand can be fully qualified with a network ID. If you define an APPN resource to update the APPN directory the CPNAME is required.

CPNAME can be the same name as the host's control point name (SSCP name). However, CPNAME cannot match the name of the CDRSC minor node.

If the CPNAME or NETSRVR name is qualified with a network ID, that network ID is used regardless of the NETID operand value. Otherwise, the value of the NETID operand is used to qualify the name. If NETID is not coded, CPNAME and NETSRVR are qualified with the host's network ID.

Note that for the cross-domain resource major node, CPNAME and REGISTER are conflicting options. If you code CPNAME and a REGISTER value of anything other than NO, an error message is issued and REGISTER is set to NO.
