NSAP

NSAP defines the network service access point (NSAP) address for an FTAM initiator

process or VFS profile. See address on page 4-2.

The NSAP is a binary-encoded string. It is entered as a string of an even number of

hexadecimal characters—maximum length of 40 hexadecimal characters. NSAP

addresses are administered by a centralized addressing authority.

If you alter PSEL, SSEL, TSEL, and/or NSAP, the combination of resulting address

components must match an OSI address defined in the OSI manager MIB. Whenever an

application requests an FTAM association without specifying an OSI address or common

name, the OSI manager uses this OSI address as the initiator address. Whenever a

responder process creates a subdevice, it uses this OSI address. For details on how to

add an address to the OSI manager MIB or to view addresses already defined, see the

OSI/AS Configuration and Management Manual.

Note that SCF does not check for the existence of a matching address in the OSI

manager MIB; such an error is not detected until run time, when the associated

responder process is started or when an initiator initiates a connection. For more

information on OSI addresses how they are used, see the OSI/FTAM Configuration and

Management Manual.

OMGRNAME

OMGRNAME specifies the name of the OSI manager process that manages the

underlying OSI services to be used.

PRIORITY

PRIORITY specifies the execution priority used when the APLMGR process starts an

initiator or responder process.

The priority for the APLMGR process is specified in the RUN command.

Default: None

Value: Even number of hexadecimal characters—maximum length of 40

Objects: PROCESS, PROFILE, SU

Default: $OSIM

Value: See description

Objects: SUBSYS

Default: Same priority as the APLMGR process

Value: Integer, 1 to 199

Objects: PROCESS
