Step 3: (Optional) Defining a USS table entry

If you require VTAM session access from a VTAM terminal, the instructions in this step might be required; if your site needs only EXCP session access or will configure only VTAM AutoLogon sessions, you can skip this step.

Optionally, you might need to update your USS table (USSTAB) if you want to define a shorter logon command for users that log on from a VTAM terminal; the default command is BBV. To update the USS table, a USSTAB table entry must be added to your production USS table and the table must then be recompiled.

Your site might require that you check with your VTAM site administrator about adding the sample USSTAB entry and recompiling your production USS table.

To define the sample USSTAB table entry

  1. Create UBBSAMP member BBVUSST.
  2. Copy hilevel.BBSAMP member BBVUSST to the new member.
  3. Follow the instructions at the top of the UBBSAMP(BBVUSST) member to make modifications, if necessary.
  4. Add the table entry to your production USS table.
  5. Recompile the USS table.
  6. Ensure that you define the USS=YES parameter that is defined in your LAS parameter list member (see Step-7-Optional-Defining-a-default-LAS-initialization-parameter-list for more information).
