HP will support certain versions, releases,
modifications, and Product Temporary Fix
(PTF) levels of the above software. The
Network Implementations Support Plan
(NISP) will help the customer engineer
determine support requirements in advance of
SNA NRJE in a particular network.
SNA NRJE/iX Product Requirements
• An HP 3000 Series 900 computer system
running a supported release of MPE/iX.
• HP 30291A SNA/SDLC Link/iX, J2249A
SNA/Token Ring Link/iX, or HP 30298A
SNA/X.25 Link/iX
SNA NRJE/V Product Requirements
• An HP 3000 Series 37-70 and MPE V operat-
ing system
• HP 30246A SNA Link/V
Functional Specifications
SNA NRJE provides the HP 3000 with the
major functions of an IBM 8100 DPPX/RJE
workstation operating as a remote node in an
SNA network.
The maximum RU size supported by NRJE is
768 bytes.
SNA NRJE supports a record length up to 252
bytes (or characters) for JES2 and JES3 and
128 bytes (or characters) for VSE/POWER
when sending data from the HP 3000 to an
IBM host. Records up to 225 bytes in length
may be received from the host.
NRJE supports up to eight workstations, each
of which may support up to 16 LU-LU
sessions, with a maximum of 64 total LU-LU
sessions.
Installation and Configuration Policy
SNA NRJE is customer installable. However,
Hewlett-Packard will perform minimum
configuration of SNA NRJE in order to verify
minimum product functionality. These tasks
performed by HP are included in the product
purchase price.
For product configuration tailored to the
customer’s specific needs, or for a complete
HP implementation, HP offers a
comprehensive range of integrated and
flexible support services. Please refer to the
Network Support data sheets in this guide for
more information on these services.
Customer Responsibility
Prior to having HP personnel onsite to
perform minimum configuration of SNA NRJE,
the customer is responsible for the following:
• Providing HP with the information neces-
sary to complete the Network
Implementation and Support Plan (NISP)
including:
– System configurations
– Logical network map identifying relevant
traffic flow
– Physical network map identifying relevant
network hardware components.
• Verifying that the necessary host mainframe
software is installed and configured to sup-
port SNA NRJE. The customer should con-
tact their HP Sales Representative for typi-
cal host parameter values or consult the
“HP SNA Products Remote System
Configuration Guide (J2220-61025).
• Verifying that SNA Link/V, SNA/SDLC
Link/iX, SNA/Token Ring Link/iX, or
SNA/X.25 Link/iX is properly installed and
configured prior to the installation of SNA
NRJE unless an SNA Link will be installed
at the same time.
