Associations and using the directory definition file for CMIP services z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide SC27-3672-01 |
|
To implement CMIP services and the VTAM® topology agent, you must have a directory definition file.
The directory definition file controls:
The directory definition file is read when CMIP services is started. Before an association is started, CMIP services checks the file to determine whether the association is allowed. The directory definition file is checked only at the time the association is established. It is not checked at every exchange between partners in an association. If the directory definition file indicates that the association
is allowed, it continues to be allowed until the association ends
in one of the following ways:
If you allow an association and then decide not to allow that association, you cannot stop the association until you restart CMIP services 1. Even if you change the directory definition file to indicate that the association is no longer allowed, issuing the MODIFY TABLE command does not stop the association. 1 You can also stop an association by writing
a CMIP application to do so. For further information, see the z/OS Communications Server: CMIP Services and
Topology Agent Guide .
