Task 2: Create the Line-Handler Process
ALTCPU altcpunumber
indicates the processor where the backup EnvoyACP/XF line-handler process
normally executes.
TYPE (11,n)
is the device type and subtype for this EnvoyACP/XF line-handler. Possible
subtypes are: 40 (SDLC), 41 (HDLC), 42 (ADCCP).
RSIZE rsize
specifies the record length in bytes. The RSIZE value determines the maximum
read and write counts that the user application can specify for the line. The
attribute is required for the WAN Manager program; however, the RSIZE value has
no actual function in configuring an EnvoyACP/XF line-handler process. However,
because you must specify RSIZE, you should match the RSIZE value to the
FRAMESIZE value.
Note that the FRAMESIZE value is specified in words, but the RSIZE value is
specified in bytes. Thus the RSIZE value should be double the FRAMESIZE value.
For example, if the FRAMESIZE value is 1018 words, the RSIZE value should be
2036 bytes.
User application programs can retrieve the FRAMESIZE value by using the
DEVICE_GETINFOBYNAME_ procedure call. Thus, if the FRAMESIZE and RSIZE
values correspond, the user application can indirectly obtain information about
RSIZE.
ADAPTER concname
is the SWAN concentrator to be used by this EnvoyACP/XF line-handler process.
The SWAN concentrator must have been previously defined through the WAN
subsystem SCF command ADD ADAPTER. For information about adding SWAN
concentrators, see the WAN Subsystem Configuration and Management Manual.
CLIP clipnum
is the communications line interface processor (CLIP) on the SWAN concentrator
specified by concname. Valid values are 1, 2, or 3.
LINE linenum
is the line number (0 or 1) on the selected CLIP specified by clipnum.
linenum must not have been previously selected for use by another line-handler
process.
