FTAM Manuals
The following list describes the manuals shown in Figure i on page xviii:
•
Tandem OSI/FTAM Programming Guide explains important programming concepts
pertaining to the Tandem FTAM application program interface (API) and describes
sequences of procedure calls to use to perform common FTAM programming
operations. This manual also provides an overview of FTAM concepts for those who
have not recently read the ISO 8571 specification.
•
Tandem OSI/FTAM Programming Reference Manual is the companion manual to the
Tandem OSI/FTAM Programming Guide and provides reference information on the
programmatic interface provided by Tandem FTAM for application programs that
run on a Tandem host using the FTAM initiator. It discusses product conformance to
standards and interoperability, provides information on the FTAM initiator, and
provides reference material for all procedure calls in the FTAM API, including
descriptions of diagnostic and error messages.
•
Tandem OSI/FTAM Responder Manual provides information for programmers
writing applications on remote systems using the services of the Tandem FTAM
responder. This manual discusses the Tandem FTAM responder’s conformance to
standards and interoperability, describes the operation of the responder, and provides
reference information on diagnostic messages.
•
OSI/FTAM Configuration and Management Manual (this manual) describes how to
install, configure, and manage Tandem FTAM. This manual also includes
information on monitoring and adjusting Tandem FTAM to optimize performance
along with information on diagnosing and fixing problems.
•
OSI/FTAM and OSI/APLMGR SCF Reference Manual describes the Subsystem
Control Facility (SCF) commands and object types used to configure, control,
modify, and inquire about Tandem FTAM. It contains descriptions of SCF and
PTrace commands and screen displays that apply to Tandem FTAM.
•
The Operator Messages Manual describes system messages and provides an
explanation of the cause, a discussion of the effect on the system, and suggestions
for corrective action. Refer to this manual for descriptions of the operator messages
generated by Tandem FTAM.
