Usage Guidelines
A left over LU is defined as one for which all of the following conditions are true:
•The system services control point (SSCP) did not send an ACTLU during PU start up; and
•The PU controlling the LU is capable of carrying product set ID (PSID) vectors on network
managementvector transport (NMVT) messages, thus allowing dynamic definition of dependent
LU (DDDLU) operation for that LU.
All LUs in the generic pool are, by definition, DDDLU capable.
Values entered forgeneric-pool in TN3270 configuration mode apply to all PUs for that TN3270
server but can be changed in PU configuration mode.
InPU configuration mode, a no generic-pool command will restore the generic-pool value entered
in TN3270 command mode.
InTN3270 configuration mode, the no generic-pool command reverts to the default, which permits
generic pool use.
The command takes effect immediately. Ifgeneric-pool deny is specified on a PU, no further
dynamic connections to it will be allowed. Existing sessions are unaffected, but, as they terminate,
the LUs will not become available for dynamic connections.
permit Left over LUs should be made available to TN3270 users
wanting generic sessions. This value is the default.
deny Left over LUs should not be given to a generic pool. The
physicalunit (PU) is not automatically fully populated with
255 LOCADDR definitions. The default is the value
configured in TN3270 configuration mode.
