Starting the Guardian TN3270 Server
-f
forces a Saveabend file to be produced automatically in most circumstances
when the Guardian TN3270 Server abends. For common startup errors, the
Saveabend file is suppressed.
-h
causes pool-checking on every memory-management call. Due to increased
overhead, you should use this option only when you suspect corruption of the
memory pool.
-k
specifies that a TN3270 Server process supports the Kanji character set in CRT
mode windows. Setting the -k option tells the SETMODE 144 procedure to
return a set of values appropriate for the Kanji character set. Be sure to use the -
k option in conjunction with the -s option (SNAX mode). When the
-k option is selected and TN3270 Server is used with Pathway, Pathway
automatically performs Kanji character set translation. The -k option affects
only CRT mode windows; Kanji is not supported for ITI mode windows.
-mpages
specifies the number of memory pages to be allocated for the buffer pool. The
default value is 512 pages. The Guardian TN3270 Server abends when the
buffer pool is exhausted. The minimum value allowed is 50 pages; the
maximum value allowed is 32,000 pages. The recommended value is twice the
maximum number of sessions.
-n0
specifies that no name resolution is done. This is the default setting.
-n1
specifies that names are resolved from the hosts file.
-n2
specifies that names are resolved from the hosts file or the Domain Name
Resolver, according to the rules listed in Table 3-3 on page 3-7.
-r
specifies that the Guardian TN3270 Server uses 3270 remote commands. If this
option is omitted, 3270 local commands are used. See Table 3-1 on page 3-5.
-s
selects the SNAX/XF application interface mode. Because the SNAX/XF mode
runs a more efficient two-step read and supports richer 3270 features, selecting
SNAX/XF mode is recommended for everyone running Pathway or any other
application that supports SNAX/XF. The default application interface mode is
