Send and Receive CNM Data

Note: For CNM data flow, there must be a copy of CA NetMaster NM for SNA licensed in the same region as this product.

You perform this procedure using the first page of the CNM and the ISRIN Customizer : Parameter Group panels.

To send and receive CNM data in CA NetMaster NA:

1. In the CNM parameter group, specify the required CNM ACB name. The CNM ACB Name is the name of the ACB used to send and receive CNM requests and responses, and optionally, used to receive unsolicited CNM data.

   Note: If the ACB specified is unable to receive unsolicited CNM data, the name of the CA NetMaster NM for SNA or Tivoli NetView region where it resides must be specified in the ISR Link Name field on the ISRIN Parameter Group panel.

2. In the ISRIN parameter group, complete the CNM data fields. The ISR Link Name is the name of the CA NetMaster NM for SNA or Tivoli NetView region in which the CNM ACB that is able to receive unsolicited CNM data is located. This automatically initiates a link from this product to that other region.
3. If the region specified in the ISRIN CNM data ISR Link Name field is NetMaster for SNA, specify an outbound ISR link from that region to this product. In the CA NetMaster NM for SNA region, specify the link in the ISROUT parameter group. The group issues the following commands to start a link:

   LINK START=link-name
   ISR ENABLE=NEWS LINK=link-name SOL=YES UNSOL=OUT
   

   link-name is the CNM data ISR link name in the ISROUT parameter group. The following illustration shows this relationship.

   

4. If the region specified in the ISRIN CNM data ISR Link Name field is NetView, enter YES in the Is the ISR Link to NetView? field. If not, specify NO.
