Services Available

The TSO/E Enhanced Connectivity Facility service is accomplished through a call/return interface using programs. A requester is a program that requests a service. A server is a program that performs the service. IBM® System/370 to IBM Personal Computer Enhanced Connectivity Facilities support TSO/E Enhanced Connectivity Facility service products (requester/server programs) that allow a PC user to do such things as:

Access host data
Store PC data on the host
Print PC data on the host
Off-load PC files and disks to the host
Execute host procedures

To find out more about these TSO/E Enhanced Connectivity Facility service products, see Introduction to IBM System/370 to IBM Personal Computer Enhanced Connectivity Facilities.

In addition to the IBM-supplied programs, installations may write their own requesters and servers. For more information on writing requesters, see IBM Programmer's Guide to the Server-Requester Programming Interface for the IBM Personal Computer and the IBM 3270-PC. For more information on writing servers, see z/OS TSO/E Guide to SRPI.
