Step 4: (Optional) Defining logon interpret table entries

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 logon interpret table (LOGTAB) 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 logon interpret table, LOGTAB table entries must be added to your production logon interpret table and the table must then be recompiled.

Important

Your site might require that you check with your VTAM site administrator about adding sample LOGTAB entries and recompiling your production logon interpret table.

Sample LOGTAB table entries are provided in BBSAMP member BBVLIT. You are not required to use these sample table entries; you can create your own entries.

To define sample LOGTAB table entries

  1. Create UBBSAMP member BBVLIT.
  2. Copy hilevel.BBSAMP member BBVLIT to the new member.
  3. Follow the instructions at the top of the UBBSAMP(BBVLIT) member to make modifications, if necessary.
  4. Add the table entry to your production logon interpret table.
  5. Recompile the logon interpret table.
  6. Ensure that you define the USS=NO parameter that is defined in your LAS parameter list member (see Step-7-Optional-Defining-a-default-LAS-initialization-parameter-list for more information).
