HP-UX SNAplus2 Release Notes (February 2007)

HP-UX SNAplus2 R7.11.31.001 Release Notes
What Is in This Version
Chapter 16
— Full Duplex APPC
Full Duplex APPC is an addition to the existing APPC interface that allows
transaction programs (TP) to send and receive data at the same time.
— Session Level interface (SLI)
SLI is an extension of an LUA interface, working at a higher level. SLI allows you to
work at a logical message level, rather than being concerned with the details of
individual request units (RU).
—Primary RUI
Primary RUI is an extension of the Logical Unit Application (LUA) RUI interface.
Primary RUI allows you to write programs that emulate a PU type 5 mainframe,
talking to downstream PUs. This allows you to either completely eliminate the
mainframe or to off load some of the mainframe processing to HP-UX systems.
