4.For database name („5…), determine the name of the host database. This is the LOCATION NAME for OS/390 or MVS, the RDB_NAME for VM or VSE, or a relational database name for AS/400.

5.For mode name („6… and „15…), usually the default IBMDRB is sufficient.

6.For remote network address („8…), determine the controller address or local adapter address of the target host or AS/400 system.

7.Determine the local control point name („10…) of the DB2 Connect workstation. This is usually the same as the PU name for the system.

8.Determine the local LU name to be used by DB2 Connect („11…). If you use a Syncpoint Manager to manage multisite updates (two-phase commit), the local LU should be the LU used for the SPM. In this case, that LU cannot also be the Control Point LU.

9.For local LU alias („12…), you usually use the same value as for the local LU name („11…).

10.For local node or node ID („13… plus „14…), determine the IDBLK and IDNUM of the DB2 Connect workstation. The default value should be correct.

11.For symbolic destination name („16…), choose a suitable value.

12.For (remote) transaction program (TP) name („17…), it is recommended that you use the defaults listed in the worksheet.

13.Leave the other items blank for now („18… to „21…).

Step 2. Update the APPC Pro®les on the DB2 Connect Workstation

Use the completed worksheet in Table 5 on page 68 to con®gure DB2 Connect APPC communications for access to a remote host or AS/400 database server.

Go to the sections that describe how to con®gure APPC communications on the platforms that are present in your network:
