Specifies whether VTAM® loads
the initial test routine, which is a diagnostic routine for a channel-attached
communication controller. This routine checks the communication controller
for any machine malfunctions before VTAM loads
the NCP into it.
- INITEST=NO
- Specifies that VTAM will not load the initial test routine.
- INITEST=YES
- Specifies that VTAM will load the initial test routine.
Note:
- Applies only to channel-attached IBM® 3705 Communication Controllers.
- If you code INITEST=YES for any communication controller other than an IBM 3705, the load fails.
- If you code INITEST=YES for an NCP that controls a link-attached IBM 3705 Communication Controller, VTAM ignores it.
