Parameter Description for LINE(nnnnn)

CONNECT= (Yes|No|DEFAULT,interval)

Specifies whether an NJE connection should be automatically attempted for this line. If DEFAULT is specified, processing defers to the CONNECT=(YES|NO) value that is specified on the associated NODE statement. The interval is the approximate time (in minutes) between attempted restarts. The valid range for interval is 0 to 1440. A value of 0 indicates that the default interval (from NJEDEF CONNECT=) should be used. The default CONNECT value is DEFAULT, and the default interval is 0.

JRNUM=n|DEFAULT

Specifies the number (0-7) of network job receivers to be associated with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer that specifies the maximum number of input job streams allowed to be concurrently active on this line. This specification should match the value of JTNUM for this line on other nodes with which this node is to communicate directly. The sum of the values of JRNUM and SRNUM for this line must not exceed 8, or the statement is ignored.

This value overrides the default global value set by the JRNUM= parameter of the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, JES2 takes the value from the JRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit the value or use the default value where the sum of the values of JRNUM and SRNUM exceeds 8, JRNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.

Default: Value of the JRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.

Modification: Hot start.

JTNUM=n|DEFAULT

Specifies the number (0-7) of network job transmitters to be associated with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer that specifies the maximum number of output job streams allowed to be concurrently active on this line. You should not change this value unless it is known that a particular user has jobs with extremely large amounts of input to be transmitted and other short jobs that must be transmitted concurrently. If there are not enough receivers on the receiving node to receive jobs over the line, excess transmitters drain automatically. The sum of the values JTNUM= and STNUM= for this line must not exceed 8, or the statement is ignored.

This value overrides the default global value set by the JTNUM= parameter of the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the JTNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT value, where the sum of the values of JRNUM and SRNUM exceeds 8, JTNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.

Default: Value of the JTNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.

Modification: Hot start.

NODE=node

Specifies the NJE node name associated with this node. This value determines which node to connect to when a $SN,LINE=xxx command is issued or the line is automatically connected.

Password=xxxxxxxx

Specifies a 1- to 8- character security password JES2 is to use to prevent unauthorized terminal users from using this line. This password can be used in the connection request from RJE workstations. Do not specify a password for TCP/IP lines used in NJE host-to-host sessions.

Note: If you specify a password for a TCP/IP line, it is meaningful only if that line is a dedicated line.

If you do not specify a password, none exists.

Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.

REST=nnnn|0

Specifies an integer between 0 and 2000 which represents the resistance rating of the line as viewed by the installation management and coordinated with other installations. Resistance is an arbitrary value set to indicate a specific line's ability or inability to route work that has “normal” workload requirements and line speed.

Note that this parameter defaults to the REST= value specified on the SOCKET(jxxxxxxx) or the NODE(xxxxxxxx) initialization statement. See z/OS JES2 Initialization and Tuning Guide for details concerning resistance selection.

Modification: $T LINE(nnnnn) operator command.

RESTART= (Yes|No,interval)

Specifies whether (Yes) or not (No) this line will be restarted if it is drained. The interval is the approximate time (in minutes) between attempted restarts. The valid range for interval is 0 to 1440. A value of 0 indicates that the default interval (from NJEDEF CONNECT=) should be used. The default RESTART value is No, and the default interval value is 0.

SRNUM=n|DEFAULT

Specifies the number (0-7) of network SYSOUT receivers to be associated with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer which specifies the maximum number of SYSOUT receiver streams allowed to be concurrently active on this line. This specification should match the value of STNUM= for this line on the other nodes with which this member is to communicate directly. The sum of the values JRNUM= and SRNUM= for this line must not exceed 8, or the statement is ignored.

This value overrides the default global value set by the SRNUM= parameter on the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the SRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT where the sum of SRNUM= and JRNUM= exceeds 8, SRNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.

Default: Value of the SRNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.

Modification: Hot start.

START=Yes|No

Specifies whether (Yes) or not (No) this line, if it is ready, will be started automatically when JES2 starts processing. The default START value is No.

STNUM=n|DEFAULT

Specifies the number (0-7) of network SYSOUT transmitters which will be associated with this NJE line. The value of n is an integer which specifies the maximum number of SYSOUT transmitter streams allowed to be concurrently active on this line. If there are not enough receivers on the receiving node to receive SYSOUT data over the line, excess transmitters drain automatically. The sum of the values JTNUM= and STNUM= for this line must not exceed 8, or the statement is ignored.

This value overrides the default global value set by the STNUM= parameter of the NJEDEF statement. If this value is omitted or set to DEFAULT, the value is taken from the STNUM= parameter of NJEDEF. If you omit or use the DEFAULT where the sum of STNUM= and JTNUM= exceeds 8, STNUM= is reduced so that the sum equals 8.

Default: Value of the STNUM= parameter of NJEDEF.

Modification: Hot start.

UNIT=TCP|TCPIP|TCP/IP

Specify UNIT=TCP to define a logical line. TCP/IP lines may only be used for NJE communication.

TRaceio={YES|NO|JES=YES|NO|COMMON=YES|NO|VERBOSE=YES|NO}

Specifies whether tracing is to be active, and which types of traces are to be activated for the TCP/IP line.

YES: Indicates all types of tracing are to be done.
NO: Indicates no tracing is to be done.
JES=YES|NO: Indicates whether data and control records passed between JES2 and TCP/IP are to be traced for this line.
COMMON=YES|NO: Indicates whether TCP/IP and other services called by IAZNJTCP are to be traced.
VERBOSE=YES|NO: Indicates whether diagnostic messages are to be issued to the master console and SYSLOG.
