Optional Features

Consider whether to use the following optional CA‑GSS features:

GoalNet

GoalNet is an LU 6.2‑based communications protocol that CA‑GSS uses to permit cross‑system communication by CA Technologies products and user‑written IMODs.

Use GoalNet if you want to use VTAM to enable communications between multiple copies of z/OS or multiple copies of CA‑GSS on the local system.

ILOGs

The ILOG files are VSAM linear data sets (LDS) that are used to record WTO text and other events of interest.

Use ILOGs if you are using CA Insight Database Performance Monitor for DB2 for z/OS or if you have written your own IMOD applications for capturing and processing data.

Logon Facility

The Logon Facility provides access to the CA‑GSS/ISERVE Control Panel from VTAM applications.

You can use the Logon Facility if you want to display and control CA‑GSS from VTAM applications.
