VTAM Definitions for the NCF Network

The VTAM definitions for each CA WA CA 7 Edition NCF site must be set up at each site. The definitions are dependent on the environment. The user's system programming area responsible for VTAM should be contacted to establish the necessary definitions. After the definitions are completed, the VTAM members may need to be varied active after VTAM is initialized, or VTAM may be restarted to get the definitions active.

As a guide, see the example definition in member AL2UM02 in the CA WA CA 7 Edition options library (CAL2OPTN). This example table is listed in the next topic. For the Dallas site, the SYS1.VTAMLST data set could be changed as follows:

1. Member ATCCONxx would need to include three new members NCFCDRSC, NCFCDRM and NCFDEF.
2. Member NCFCDRSC would be:

            VBUILD  TYPE=CDRSC
   NCFDEN   CDRSC CDRM=DENVER
   NCFSF    CDRSC CDRM=SANFRAN
   NCFTOKYO CDRSC CDRM=TOKYO
   

3. Member NCFCDRM would be:

            VBUILD  TYPE=CDRM
   DALLAS   CDRM  SUBAREA=x1,CDRDYN=YES,CDRSC=OPT
   DENVER   CDRM  SUBAREA=x2,CDRDYN=YES,CDRSC=OPT
   SANFRAN  CDRM  SUBAREA=x3,CDRDYN=YES,CDRSC=OPT
   TOKYO    CDRM  SUBAREA=x4,CDRDYN=YES,CDRSC=OPT
   

   where x1, x2, x3 and x4 are installation dependent.

4. Member NCFDEF would be:

            VBUILD  TYPE=APPL
   NCFDAL   APPL  ACBNAME=NCFDAL,AUTH=ACQ
