Selective termination of idle network management sessions z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide SC27-3672-01 |
|
Network management is the process of planning, organizing, monitoring, and controlling a communication-oriented data processing or information system. The architecture provided to assist in network management of SNA systems is called management services and is implemented as a set of functions and services designed to capture and use the information needed for effective management. VTAM® can exchange management services information with other systems that provide management services transport, or multiple-domain support, such as AS/400®, Communication Manager/2, or other VTAM systems. This type of information flows between architected transaction programs in the respective systems over SNA sessions. The network management sessions that carry this exchange use either the CPSVCMG or SNASVCMG mode names. For further information about management services concepts and architecture, see Systems Network Architecture Management Services Reference. The limited resource function is also available on some control point sessions used for network management flows, though for these sessions, it differs from the way it operates for noncontrol point sessions. For network management flows using the CP SNASVCMG session, a session is deactivated only when there are not any management services (MS) transport transactions outstanding, in addition to the session being inactive. By coding the LIMINTCP start option, you specify the interval to retain a free CP SNASVCMG session for a resource that is defined as limited (with the LIMRES operand). The CP SNASVCMG session is used for some network management flows. Note: The limited resource function for the control point is supported
only on CP sessions for network management flows using the CP SNASVCMG
session. The function is not available on APPN CP sessions or dependent
LU server sessions.
To define limited resource management for network management flows, perform the following steps:
