HP UX SNAplus2 manual

Configuring User Applications

Overview

Step 1. For a 3270 display or printer, define a dependent LU as described in “Defining LU Types 0–3”.

Step 2. To enable 3270 displays to select from a pool of LUs, define an LU pool as described in “Defining LU Pools”. If a display uses a dedicated LU, you can skip this step.

Step 3. Define emulator users (or groups of users) and 3270 emulator sessions as described in “Configuring 3270 Users and Sessions”.

SNAplus2 provides 3270 emulation software that enables you to log on to and use SNA host systems from your HP-UX computer. Using this software, you can transfer files between the local and host computers, and control display and printer emulation sessions. You can customize some of the 3270 emulation features, such as key mapping and display attributes. SNAplus2 3270 emulation also enables you to use HLLAPI applications.

5250 applications

For 5250 communication, configure the following resources:

Step 1. Configure the node for APPC communication:

a.If you can use the local node's control point LU, you do not need to configure a local LU. If you need a local LU definition (for example, to use session security), define the local LU as described in “Defining Local LUs”.

b.If the local node is a LEN node, youmust define the AS/400 system as a remote node as described in “Defining Remote Nodes”.

If the local node is an APPN end node, you can use the control point LU on the AS/400 system as a partner LU, so you do not need to configure any other partner LUs.

You do not need to define any modes, because 5250 uses the standard mode QPCSUPP.

Step 2. Define emulator users (or groups of users) as described in “Configuring 5250 Users”.
