Coexistence with CA NetMaster NM for SNA

Run CA NetMaster NM for SNA in the same region as CA NetMaster NA. If you run the products in separate regions, specify the CA NetMaster NM for SNA logon requirements in the EXTAPPLS parameter group.

Same Region Considerations

To run CA NetMaster NM for SNA in the same region, you should perform the following:

• Ensure that the RUNSYSIN procedure (created during product setup) includes CA NetMaster NM for SNA.
• Ensure that the RUNSYSIN procedure includes the CA NetMaster NM for SNA data sets in the COMMANDS DD.

Separate Region Considerations

Some resource-specific commands are not functional if you run the products in separate regions.

If you need to run the products in separate regions on the same system, you should review the ISRIN parameter group (enter /PARMS). This group enables you to set up proper communications between the two regions.

CNM Data Considerations

To use CNM data, you must initialize the Network Error Warning System (NEWS) in the product region. However, if you have an existing CA NetMaster NM for SNA region, you might want to use it concurrently for a while for receiving CNM data from VTAM before combining it with this product.

To receive CNM data from a separate region, identify the link to that region in the ISRIN parameter group (enter /PARMS).
