SiLNXPRM Parameter Member

Command on ABEND

Specifies the command in response to a z/OS region abend. Typically, you specify the START rname command.

ABENDCMD = ____________________

TCP/IP stack type

Specifies the type of stack:

• IBM indicates the IBM Communications Server using Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4).
• IBMV6 indicates the IBM Communications Server using Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6).
• TCPAXS indicates CA TCPaccess Communications Server for z/OS.

STACKTYPE = ____________________

TCP/IP stack job name

(IBM TCP/IP stack) Specifies the stack job name.

STACKNAME = ____________________

CA TCPaccess Communications Server for z/OS subsystem ID

(CA TCPaccess Communications Server for z/OS TCP/IP stack) Specifies the stack subsystem ID.

STACKSSID = ____________________

z/VM interface port

Specifies the port number that z/VM agents use to connect to the region. The same port must be specified in the z/VM agent configuration.

IPPORT = ____________________

Default: 2636

Range: 1024 through 65535

Linux interface port

Specifies the port number that the region uses to connect to the Linux agents. This port is specified in the Linux agent configuration.

LXPORT = ____________________

Default: 2636 (port of the SOLVE service in the xinetd configuration on the Linux systems)

Range: 1024 through 65535

syslog interface port

Specifies the port number that syslog uses to connect to the region. The same port must be specified in the syslog configuration.

SLPORT = ____________________

Default: 601

Range: 1 through 65535

Message port

Specifies the port number that is used to deliver unsolicited messages to client products. You can specify either an unused port number (static) or a token (up to 16 bytes) that acquires a port number dynamically. The same configuration must be specified in the client products.

We recommend using a token.

MSGPORT or MSGTOKEN= ____________________

Default: CALINUXUNSOLMSG: (a token)

Range: 1024 through 65535 for MSGPORT

Command port

Specifies the port number that is used for commands and responses with client products. You can specify either an unused port number (static) or a token (up to 16 bytes) that acquires a port number dynamically. The same configuration must be specified in the client products.

We recommend using a token.

CMDPORT or CMDTOKEN = ____________________

Default: CALINUXCOMMANDS: (a token)

Range: 1024 through 65535 for CMDPORT

Multiclient connections

Specifies whether to permit multiple clients to connect to the UNSOLMSG server. Permitting multiclient connections degrades the performance.

Values: NO and YES
