Sample VTAM Parameters for Independent APPC
The lists in this section show sample VTAM parameters that might be used for communication using independent Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC). The underlined values correspond to values specified in SNA Server Manager.
SERVER1 PU ADDR=09, X
<U>IDBLK=05D</U>, X
<U>IDNUM=11111</U>, X
<U>CPNAME=SNASERV</U>, X
ISTATUS=ACTIVE X

<U>MAXDATA=521</U>, X
MAXPATH=1, X
PUTYPE=2, X
SSCPFN=USSSCS, X
MAXOUT=7, X
PASSLIM=4, X
PACING=0, X
DISCNT=NO, X
USSTAB=USSTAB
TRPATH PATH DIALNO=2223331234567890, X
GRPNM=AAA01, X
GID=2
<U>LOCLU1</U> LU LOCADDR=0, X
ISTATUS=ACTIVE,<U>DLOGMOD=APPCMODE</U>, X
RESSCB=25,USSTAB=USSTAB,PACING=0, X
VPACING=0
In the preceding example, the LOCADDR= value for the LOCLU1 is 0. This is the correct value to use with independent APPC LUs.
The following table shows Host Integration Server parameters and values that correspond to the preceding sample VTAM parameters.
| Host Integration Server parameter | Sample value | VTAM parameter |
|---|---|---|
| Connection: Local Node ID, first three digits (block number) | 05D | IDBLK= parameter in the PU definition |
| Connection: Local Node ID, last five digits (node number) | 11111 | IDNUM= parameter in the PU definition |
| Server: Control Point Name | SNASERV | CPNAME= parameter in the PU definition |
| Connection: Max BTU Length | 521 | MAXDATA= parameter in the PU definition (set Max BTU Length ≤ MAXDATA) |
| Local APPC LU: LU Name | LOCLU1 | Name in LU definition |
| APPC Partner LUs: Mode | APPCMODE | DLOGMOD= parameter in the LU definition |
The following list shows mode table entries for use with independent APPC LUs.

In the preceding list, the mode named APPCMODE is an example of a mode configured for use with APPC. The mode named SNASVCMG is included in Host Integration Server, because it is required for parallel session support; it does not need to be configured in SNA Server Manager.
