Step 2: Create a Device for the Expand-Over-FOX
Line-Handler Process
$ZZWAN.profile_name
specifies, via the WAN subsystem, a user-defined name of up to eight
alphanumeric characters that will be used to identify the new profile. You will
reference this profile_name when you create devices for the Expand-over-FOX
line-handler processes in Step 2: Create a Device for the Expand-Over-FOX Line-
Handler Process.
FILE $SYSTEM.SYSnn.profile_filename
specifies the name of an existing disk file that will be used to create the new
profile. PEXQSFX is the disk filename of the profile provided for Expand-over-FOX
line-handler processes.
modifier_keyword
is the name of a modifier in profile_name. Modifier names in the PEXQSFX
profile are listed in Profile Modifiers on page 13-8.
modifier_value
is the value you want to assign to the modifier specified by modifier_keyword.
Specifying a modifier_value assigns a new value to modifier_keyword in
profile_name. Default values and ranges of values for modifiers in the
PEXQSFX profile are described in Profile Modifiers on page 13-8.
Example
In the following example, a profile named SLHFX is created for an Expand-over-FOX
line-handler process using the PEXQSFX profile. The AFTERMAXRETRIES_DOWN
modifier is set in the profile.
-> ADD PROFILE $ZZWAN.#SLHFX, FILE $SYSTEM.SYS01.PEXQSFX , &
AFTERMAXRETRIES_DOWN
Step 2: Create a Device for the Expand-Over-
FOX Line-Handler Process
You create an Expand-over-FOX line-handler process by adding it as a device to the
WAN subsystem. You must create one Expand-over-FOX line-handler process for
each cluster in the FOX ring.
