To define a network control program (NCP) major node, code the VTAM® and NCP definition statements detailed in this section, and file them in the appropriate VTAM definition library. The name under which the major node is filed must match the NCP load module name on the NEWNAME operand of the BUILD definition statement.
Information required by VTAM to communicate with the NCP and its attached devices is provided to VTAM by coding VTAM definition statements and NCP definition statements with VTAM operands. The VTAM definition statements and operands must be coded in the NCP major node, even though they provide no information to the NCP.
If there are any VTAM-only operands or restrictions on the statement, you will find a description in this document, but the description of the whole definition statement is in the NCP, SSP, and EP Resource Definition Reference.
See NCP, SSP, and EP Resource Definition Reference for a description and VTAM requirements.
For a complete list of definition statements coded in the NCP major node and coding sequence information, reference the NCP, SSP, and EP Resource Definition Reference and the NCP, SSP, and EP Resource Definition Guide.
