U7IFACE Macro

The U7IFACE macro specifies the CA WA CA 7 Edition interface options. The macro is optional.

All parameters are keyword parameters and can be specified in any order.

This macro has the following format:

[name]    U7IFACE   [ISPF=(prefix,number),]
                    [U01LD='dsname',]
                    [U11LD='dsname',]
                    [VTAM=(applid,terminal,number),]
                    [VTAMLST='dsname']
name

(Optional) Indicates a one- to eight-character, user-defined label.

U7IFACE

Must be specified as shown.

ISPF=(prefix,number)

(Optional) Specifies the VTAM parameters for the CA WA CA 7 Edition TSO/ISPF interface. The first parameter (prefix) is the application prefix that must be three characters in length. If not specified, this parameter defaults to the first three characters of the application name for CA WA CA 7 Edition itself. The second parameter (number) is the application suffix that must be numeric. Entries are generated for the number of VTAM APPL definitions, which denote the maximum number of interface sessions available between CA WA CA 7 Edition and TSO/ISPF. If not specified, this parameter defaults to match the third parameter of the VTAM keyword.

VTAM application minor node definitions are generated based on these parameters. If, for example, ISPF=(ABC,3) is coded, six application minor node definitions are generated: ABC0001, ABC0002, ABC0003, ABC10001, ABC10002, and ABC10003.

U01LD='dsname'

(Optional) This parameter is specified only if CA 1 is already installed or is being installed with CA WA CA 7 Edition. The data set name of the load library is required to execute the interface between the products.

U11LD='dsname'

(Optional) This parameter is specified only if CA WA Restart Option is already installed or is being installed with CA WA CA 7 Edition. The data set name of the load library is required to execute the interface between the products. This parameter is not needed if CA WA Restart Option is in a linklisted library or if both CA WA Restart Option and CA WA CA 7 Edition are installed in a common load library.

VTAM=(applid,terminal,numbers)

(Optional) Specifies the CA WA CA 7 Edition VTAM parameters. The first parameter (applid) is the application name that is identified for CA WA CA 7 Edition in the preparing for installation task (default is CA7). The second parameter (terminal) is the VTAM terminal ID for the terminal to be used as the CA WA CA 7 Edition master terminal (default is VTAMTERM). The third parameter (number) is the maximum number of virtual terminal sessions to define in the CA WA CA 7 Edition initialization file (default is 10).

VTAMLST='dsname'

(Optional) Specifies the name of the VTAM library to place the application definitions. The default for this parameter is VTAMLST='SYS1.VTAMLST'.
