Functional Specifications

SNA NRJE provides the HP 3000 with the major functions of an IBM 8100 DPPX/RJE workstation operating as a remote node in an SNA network.

The maximum RU size supported by NRJE is 768 bytes.

SNA NRJE supports a record length up to 252 bytes (or characters) for JES2 and JES3 and 128 bytes (or characters) for VSE/POWER when sending data from the HP 3000 to an IBM host. Records up to 225 bytes in length may be received from the host.

NRJE supports up to eight workstations, each of which may support up to 16 LU-LU sessions, with a maximum of 64 total LU-LU sessions.

Installation and Configuration Policy

SNA NRJE is customer installable. However, Hewlett-Packard will perform minimum configuration of SNA NRJE in order to verify minimum product functionality. These tasks performed by HP are included in the product purchase price.

For product configuration tailored to the customer’s specific needs, or for a complete HP implementation, HP offers a comprehensive range of integrated and flexible support services. Please refer to the Network Support data sheets in this guide for more information on these services.

Customer Responsibility

Prior to having HP personnel onsite to perform minimum configuration of SNA NRJE, the customer is responsible for the following:

•Providing HP with the information neces- sary to complete the Network Implementation and Support Plan (NISP) including:

–System configurations

–Logical network map identifying relevant traffic flow

–Physical network map identifying relevant network hardware components.

•Verifying that the necessary host mainframe software is installed and configured to sup- port SNA NRJE. The customer should con- tact their HP Sales Representative for typi- cal host parameter values or consult the “HP SNA Products Remote System Configuration Guide (J2220-61025).

•Verifying that SNA Link/V, SNA/SDLC Link/iX, SNA/Token Ring Link/iX, or SNA/X.25 Link/iX is properly installed and configured prior to the installation of SNA NRJE unless an SNA Link will be installed at the same time.
