ALK Technologies AS/400 manual Stopping the Interface

PC*MILERAS/400 MVS User’s Guide 21

The Name of Mileage Request or Input data queue, and the library in which the queue resides, are logged. The number underneath the data queue name and library is the connection status return code. Good returns are:

0 Connection Good Created Data Queue

2 Connection Good Found Data Queue

Return codes of 1 or 3 are generic error codes that indicate problems with your NS Router or Client Access Express connections.

⇒NOTE: Both the PC and the AS/400 must agree on the location of the Input or Request data queue. To change the location on the PC, click on the mileage server’s File menu. Choose AS/400 Control, then Change Library/Queue. The change is made on the AS/400 by running the ALKMVS/config command and filling out the library field.

The server log only notes incoming requests. If you need to see the mileage server’s outputs, turn on the Log to File feature by selecting the mileage server’s File menu and choosing AS400 Control > Highlight Log to File. This will create a file called c:\ALKMVS\as400.log It is recommended to only use logging for diagnostic purposes, otherwise the log files tend to grow large.

Stopping the Interface

To close PC*MILERTCP/IP Connect, click Exit in the File menu. From the PC*MILERAS/400 Multiple Version Switch window, choose Exit from the File menu.

⇒NOTE: If you are closing your router, remember to disconnect the AS/400 beforehand. Please be patient, the PC*MILER mileage server can take a minute or two to exit. Be sure to disconnect the Netsoft Router from the AS/400 before closing the router. Failure to do so may result in having to reboot the PC before you can reconnect to the AS/400. It is not necessary to manually disconnect a Client Access Express connection.
