Alias Name Translation Facility

NEWS provides VTAM alias name translation services for those levels of VTAM that require this function. VTAM requests alias name translation if the CNM Routing table entry for the CNM ACB contains the translate-inquiry RU. When establishing cross-domain or cross-network sessions, VTAM can request the translation of LU names, COS names, and LOGMODE names.

Generic name definitions allow ranges of names to be translated by NEWS from a single translation definition. You display and maintain translation definitions by using NEWS commands.
