Create cross-domain BBI-SS PAS resource manager definitions

The subsystem communication path is defined through VTAM. The path can be single domain or cross domain.

The single-domain path is defined as a VTAM application node. The cross-domain path is additionally defined as a VTAM cross-domain resource.

Single-domain definitions

If BBI-SS PASs BBIA and BBIB are in the same domain, as shown in  BBI-SS PAS-to-BBI-SS PAS single-domain communication, the following VTAM application nodes must be defined as shown:

  • SYS1.VTAMLST(BBIAPPLA)

            VBUILD  TYPE=APPL
    $BBIA   APPL    AUTH=(ACQ,NOTSO,VPACE)

  • SYS1.VTAMLST(BBIAPPLB)

            VBUILD  TYPE=APPL
    $BBIB   APPL    AUTH=(ACQ,NOTSO,VPACE)
Warning

Important

The $BBIA and $BBIB nodes can be defined within one major node, such as BBIAPPLA. You can choose names that conform to your site standards, but they must be the same as the APPLID parameters that are specified in BBPARM member BBINOD00 for the respective BBI-SS PASs. This example uses the sample member names (BBIAPPLA, BBIAPPLB, BBIXSA, BBIXSB) that are distributed by BMC in the BBSAMP data set.

If BBI-SS PASs BBIA and BBIB are cross domain, VTAM cross-domain resources must be defined. For more information, see BBI-SS PAS-to-BBI-SS PAS cross-domain communication.

Cross-domain A definitions

Define an application node (BBIAPPLA) and a cross-domain resource (BBIXSA) in domain A as follows:

Success

Tip

If the VTAM hosts at your site create dynamic cross-domain resources (CDRSCs), you can skip creating the static CDRSCs. To display the status of the VTAMOPTS CDRDYN option in each VTAM host, issue the following MVS command:

d net,vtamopts,option=cdrdyn


  • SYS1.VTAMLST(BBIAPPLA)

             VBUILD  TYPE=APPL
    $BBIA    APPL    AUTH=(ACQ,NOTSO,VPACE)

  • SYS1.VTAMLST(BBIXSA)

             VBUILD  TYPE=CDRSC
    $BBIB    CDRSC   CDRM=cdrmname,ISTATUS=ACTIVE

    $BBIB is the cross-domain node for the BBI-SS PAS that is used in the VTAM application node definition in domain B.

    cdrmname is the name of the CDRM major node that is defined for domain B.

Cross-domain B definitions

Define an application node (BBIAPPLB) and a cross-domain resource (BBIXSB) in domain B as follows:

  • SYS1.VTAMLST(BBIAPPLB)

             VBUILD  TYPE=APPL
    $BBIB    APPL    AUTH=(ACQ,NOTSO,VPACE)

  • SYS1.VTAMLST(BBIXSB)

             VBUILD  TYPE=CDRSC
    $BBIA    CDRSC   CDRM=cdrmname,ISTATUS=ACTIVE

    $BBIA is the cross-domain node for the BBI-SS PAS that is used in the VTAM application node definition in domain A.

    cdrmname is the name of the CDRM major node that is defined for domain A.
