TCPIPS00

This member defines GTS-to-GTS server information.

The TCPIPS00 member supports the following keywords:

DEBUG(YES|ON|NO|OFF)
PORT(49152|nnnnn)
SERVER(xxxxxxxx)

DEBUG

Indicates whether debugging messages should be generated; this should only be turned on at the request of CA Support.

PORT

Designates the numeric identifier of the port that CA GTS should listen on for incoming connection requests; the value is four or five numerals in length. The number must be in the range 1024-65535. This value should match the PORT() value in all TCPIPC00 members of the connecting 'other' GTS'. The default is 49152.

You may need to consult with your z/OS TCP/IP administrator to find a port number not in use. You may also need to setup a security system rule/definition to give GTS permission to use this PORT.

SERVER

Identifies the name of the TCP/IP server to use; this can be one to eight characters. This keyword is only necessary if the code cannot otherwise determine which TCP/IP is available and the standard identifier 'TCPIP' is not active. To allow for the automatic recognition of the proper TCP/IP, allocate the SYSTCPD DD statement to the TCP/IP data set containing the system definitions. Specifying SERVER() should only be a last recourse or necessary if GTS does not automatically pick the proper identifier.
