MODIFY TGP command

Purpose
Using the MODIFY TGP (transmission group profile) command, you can change the TG profile associated with a type 2.1 connection. A specific connection is identified by the combination of a control point (CP) name and TG number, or by the adjacent link station (PU) name.
If this command is issued while the connection is active and the new TG profile can be located, the topology database is updated and the new characteristics are used immediately. If the connection is not active, the new TG profile name is saved and is reported the next time the connection is activated.
This command is valid only when it is issued at an APPN node (network node, end node, interchange node, or migration data host).
Operands
- procname
- The procedure name for the command. If procname in the START command was specified as startname.ident, where startname is the VTAM® start
procedure and ident is the optional identifier,
either startname.ident or ident can be specified for procname.
If procname in the START command was startname, startname must be specified for procname.
- ID=name
- Specifies an adjacent control point (CP) name or an adjacent link
station (PU) name. If a CP name is specified, then the TGN operand
must also be specified. A CP name can be network-qualified. If the network ID is not specified, VTAM uses the network ID of the host from which the command is issued. You can specify * (or *NETWORK) as the network ID portion of a network-qualified adjacent CP name to modify the TG profile for adjacent CPs that do not currently have a network identifier assigned to them. For example, the following command is valid if A01N currently does not have a network ID associated with it:
F procname,TGP,TGPNAME=BATCH,ID=*.a01n,TGN=3
- TGN=tg_number
- Specifies the transmission group number associated with the CP. For virtual-route-based TG connections, TGN must be specified as 255.
- TGPNAME=tg_profile_name
- Specifies the name of a transmission group profile definition.
