CA IDMS DDS System Generation › CA IDMS DDS Ports › LINEs

LINEs

CCI

CCI LINEs are used by the node to establish communication between nodes. The parameter of the CCI LINE statement is TYPE IS CCI, which identifies the line as a CCI line that will be used to connect two DC/UCF systems (nodes).

Note: For more information about CCI LINEs, see the CA IDMS System Generation Guide.

TCP/IP

SOCKET LINEs must be defined in each node to allow DDS communication between nodes.

Note: For more information about SOCKET LINEs, see the CA IDMS System Generation Guide.

VTAM

DDS LINEs are used by the node to establish communication between nodes. DDS LINEs should not be confused with other DC/UCF LINE types, or with telecommunications lines. The two parameters of the DDS LINE statement are as follows:

• TYPE IS DDS indicates that the LINE is to be used to establish a connection between two nodes.
• The SOURCE parameter (VTAM only) specifies the application program identification used to define the CA IDMS DDS node to VTAM. VTAM uses this information to establish connection between two CA IDMS DDS nodes.

Note: For more information about VTAM in the CA IDMS DDS environment, see VTAM Considerations.
