(1) .-CONNTYPE--=--APPN-------. >>-+-------------------------+--------------------------------->< '-CONNTYPE--=--+-APPN-+---' '-LEN--'
Notes:
- CONNTYPE is meaningful only if the NODETYPE start option is also used.
Specifies for an APPN PU (type 2.1) whether a connection from it is established as a LEN connection or attempted as an APPN connection. CONNTYPE applies to end nodes and network nodes.
You can change the value of CONNTYPE with the MODIFY VTAMOPTS
command while VTAM® is running.
- CONNTYPE=APPN
- Specifies that the connection is attempted as an APPN connection. When you code CONNTYPE=APPN, XID rules for parallel TGs are enforced. So, if you have PUs with duplicate CPNAMEs, you should make them unique before this node becomes an APPN node.
- CONNTYPE=LEN
- Specifies that the connection is established as a LEN connection. CONNTYPE=LEN specifies that this connection does not support CP-CP sessions and CP name change, and that VTAM does not check for duplicate CPNAMEs.
