To enable 3270 communications, you must define emulator users
or groups of users as described in “Configuring 3270 Emulator
Users”, and 3270 emulator sessions
as described in “Configuring 3270 Sessions”. Configuring 3270 Emulator
Users | |
You must add emulator user
definitions for each user who requires access to a 3270 emulator. Adding an individual user gives access to only that user.
Any sessions added to the user are available only for that user. You can also add a group of users in a single operation. Adding
a group of users gives access to all members of the group. Any sessions
added to the group are available for all users in the group. This
means that you do not have to define each user individually, reducing
the time needed to configure users. If there are several users with sessions using the same LUs
or LU pools, you should first define one user and add all the session
definitions. To add the other users, you can copy the first user
definition. Emulator user information can be accessed by the SNAplus2
3270 emulation program or by a Windows client running an emulation
program that is compatible with Microsoft's SNA Server product. To configure an emulator user or group, use one of the following
methods: - Motif
administration program
Select
Emulator users and
sessions from the Windows menu on the Node window,
then choose one of the following options from the Selection menu: - Command-line administration program
Issue the following command: define_emulator_user
Emulation User
and Group Configuration ParametersThe following parameters are required for each 3270 emulator
user definition: - User Name
The name of the emulator user. For users running the emulation program on HP-UX systems,
this is the name used to log in on that computer. The name is set
up by the administrator of the HP-UX system. For Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11, or on Win16
subsystems on Windows NT, Windows 95, or OS/2, this name is the
snauser field in the Configuration section
of the sna.ini file (which
usually resides in the c:\windows
directory). For Windows 95 or Windows NT, this name matches a login
name defined on the Windows 95 or Windows NT system. - Group Name
When
adding a user group, supply the name of the group to which the user
belongs. For users running the emulation program on HP-UX systems,
this name is set up by the administrator of the HP-UX system. For Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11, or on Win16
subsystems on Windows NT, Windows 95, or OS/2, this name is the
snagroup field in the Configuration section
of the sna.ini file (which
usually resides in the c:\windows
directory). For Windows 95 or Windows NT, you can find the group
name through the Windows Program Registry. For a user group, the remaining fields in the dialog apply
to all members of the group. You can set up a default user definition that is used by all
users who do not have their own individual or group definitions.
To do this, specify a user or group name of DEFAULT. - Style File
This
field is relevant only to users of the SNAplus2 3270 program. If the user has a style file, enter the file name. If there
is no style file, the user runs the emulation program with a default
style. The style file determines the appearance and behavior of the
emulation screens and keyboard for the emulator user. These may
be different for different users. When entering the style file name, you should omit the .stu
extension. If the user specifies a style file on the command line, that
file takes the place of the file specified in this field. - Style file access
The
user's privileges for accessing and modifying the style file. This
field is used only by the SNAplus2 3270 emulation program. - Restricted
The user cannot specify a style file at the command
line when starting the emulation program, and cannot modify the
style file settings from within the emulator. - Normal
The user can specify a style file from the command
line and can modify its settings. - Initial
The user can specify a style file at the command
line, but cannot modify its settings.
- Sessions
How
many sessions to define for the user and which LU or pool to use
for each session. - 3270 permissions
The
user permissions for SNAplus2 3270 emulator users: - Session limit
If you select this option, also specify the maximum
number of 3270 sessions a user can use from a single 3270 emulator.
By default, the maximum number of sessions is set to 10. - Change LU
The user can change 3270 sessions to use different
LUs from those configured. - View RTM data
The user can view RTM data. - Send alerts
The user can send alerts to NetView.
After performing the emulation user configuration, you can
define 3270 sessions for users or groups as described in “Configuring 3270 Sessions”. Configuring 3270 Sessions | |
A 3270 session definition must be
added as the child of an emulator user or group definition. You
can configure a single 3270 session to use a display or printer
LU, or assign it an LU pool (enabling it to use any available LU
in the pool). You can also configure several 3270 display sessions
that use the same LU pool, in a single operation. Emulator session information can be accessed by the SNAplus2
3270 emulator program To configure 3270 sessions, use one of the following methods: - Motif
administration program
Select Emulator
users and sessions from the Windows menu on the Node window,
then choose New. - Command-line administration program
Issue the following command: define_emulator_user
3270 Session Configuration
ParametersYou can configure a single session or multiple sessions for
3270 emulation: To configure a single session, supply
the following information: To configure multiple sessions, supply the following
information:
