Configuring a Local LU
SNAXFILENAME access-method-file-name
specifies the file name of the Tandem access method that this local LU uses to
exchange information with an SNA network. Although SNAX/APC does not check
for duplicate files, every local LU should have a distinct value for the
SNAXFILENAME attribute, because SNAX/APC issues the OPEN request to the
underlying access method exclusively. If multiple LUs have the same
SNAXFILENAME, all LUs except the one that was started first will encounter the
file system error number 61 (no more file opens permitted on the device) when the
LU is started.
To indicate that you want dynamic SNAXFILENAME support, enter the attribute
name SNAXFILENAME without supplying
access-method-file-name. See
Static and Dynamic Configuration on page 4-6 for further details.
If you are using the SNAX/CDF access method, enter the OPENNAME of the
SNAX/CDF APPL object associated with this SNAX/APC LU. The name you
specify must include the SNAX/CDF process name and must match the
OPENNAME of a previously defined SNAX/CDF APPL object. The form of the
name must be:
$snax/cdf-name.#openname
If you are using the SNAX/XF access method, enter the name of the associated
SNAX/XF LU. The name you specify must include the SNAX/XF device name.
The form of the name must be:
$snax/xf-name.#lu-name
If you are using the SNAX/APN access method, enter the name of the associated
SNAX/APN LU. The name you specify must include the SNAX/APN device name.
The form of the name must be:
$snax/apn-name.#lu-name
AUTOSTART { YES | NO }
YES specifies that the local LU is started automatically during the SNAX/APC
process initialization. When SNAX/APC is started and a non-empty configuration
file is specified, all LUs referenced in the file and listed as AUTOSTART will be
automatically started.
Note, however, that an LU is not automatically started when it is first added, even if
the value is YES. The configuration file is updated when an LU is added, but the
value of AUTOSTART is not referenced until subsequent restarts. Therefore, when
an LU is first added, it must be explicitly started with the START LU command.
NO, the default, specifies that the local LU is not started automatically during the
SNAX/APC process initialization. The START LU command must be explicitly
issued.
MAXSESSION number
specifies the maximum number of sessions that the local LU can have, where
number is an integer in the range of 1 to 1024. If the value of MAXSESSION is 1
