Next Topic: Group of LUs


Single LU or IP node

TYPE=DEST
LU=luname 
or 
IPNAME=ip_address
[IPPORT=port_number]

The TYPE=DEST statement must be the first non‑comment statement in the control library member.

luname

The VTAM name of the LU being defined.

ip_address and port_number

Identify a node within a TCP/IP network. The specification of port_number is optional.

Note: In a TYPE=EXECUTE transfer, the name of the control library member must match the name of the LU, and the XCOMCNTL DD must be included in the TYPE=EXECUTE JCL. A TYPE=SCHEDULE transfer allows the LU name and the control library member name to be different.

For a complete list of the parameters that can be used in a single‑LU destination definition, see Destination Parameters for Single LUs, Groups of LUs, and Single IPNAMEs in the chapter “Configuration Parameters.”
