Access to EASINET from TSO and TSS

The TSO interface component of the EIP option lets a TSO user connect to CA SOLVE:Access directly from a TSO session. By default, a TSO logon of this type bypasses EASINET and passes you directly to SOLVE itself.

If a TSO user wants access to EASINET, or any NCL applications operating under EASINET, code the keyword EASINET on the NMLOGON command, followed by any parameter data to pass to the EASINET procedure. For example:

NMLOGON APPL(NMT) EASINET(PHONES)

In this example, the NMLOGON command establishes a session with CA SOLVE:Access on behalf of a TSO user, and the EASINET procedure then runs the session.

EASINET can tell that it is a TSO user from the &ZTSOUSER system variable. The variables &1 and &2 are set to the name of the TSO user ID and the word PHONES respectively. This facility lets TSO users access NCL applications resident under EASINET (such as an internal telephone list) without having to have CA SOLVE:Access user IDs defined for them.
