&ZNETNAME

Returns the network name of the primary ACB.

The &ZNETNAME variable returns the network name of the APPL definition used for the system's primary ACB. The network name might differ from the ACBNAME, depending upon how the APPL has been defined.

Some versions of VTAM might not support the interrogation of network name, in which case &ZNETNAME returns a null value.

Example: &ZNETNAME

& WRITE DATA=SYSTEM SERVICES OPERATING WITH +
 ACB=&ZNETNAME

Note: &NETNAME is only available on IBM systems. Other systems return a null value.
