Snacfg TN3Session

Purpose Allows you to view, add, delete, or modify TN 3270 sessions. SNA Server Manager is the recommended interface for adding sessions.

Note   Configuration settings specified with snacfg tn3session correspond to session settings configured with SNA Server Manager. Syntax snacfg [#configpath] TN3Session /list
snacfg [#configpath] TN3 Session luname
snacfg [#configpath] TN3 Session luname /print
snacfg [#configpath] TN3 Session luname /add / [options]
snacfg [#configpath] TN3 Session luname [options]
snacfg [#configpath] TN3 Session luname /delete

where
 

#configpath
Specifies the path of the configuration file to view or change. If the configuration path is omitted, SNA Server will attempt to access the configuration file on the local system, using the path \SNAServerRoot\SYSTEM\CONFIG\COM.CFG, where SNAServerRoot is the SNA Server root directory.
/list
Generates a list of the sessions on the local subdomain.
luname
Specifies the LU name on which the session will be activated.
/print
Displays a list of the configuration settings of a print session. The displayed command does not contain the word snacfg so that it can be redirected to a command file. Command files are discussed earlier in this chapter.
/add
Adds a TN 3270 session called luname. For adding a session, the recommended method is to use SNA Server Manager, not snacfg tn3session.
/delete
Deletes luname.
Options for TN 3270 Sessions
 
/tn3server:tn3servername (required)
Specifies the computer name of the TN 3270 server on which settings will be viewed or changed. The tn3servername is required.
/assocname:"text"
Printer LUs can be marked as associated instead of generic or specific. To associate a printer LU with a terminal LU, type the Associated LU name. When this option is selected, the terminal name will default to IBM-3287-1.
/portnumber:value
Specifies the port number associated with telnet (e.g., port number 23). You can type another port number to override the default value for a given session. TN services listen on multiple ports simultaneously. You can set a default port number for the TN service (assign the port number to the server) and override this number on a per session basis (assign the port number to the LU session), allowing a single client to connect to multiple host computers.
/pooltype:pooltype
The values for pooltype are: GenericTerminal, SpecificTerminal, GenericPrinter, SpecificPrinter, AssocPrinter.
/maxsessions:value
Specifies the maximum number of LU-LU sessions that one independent LU can support. The limit set by maxsessions prevents an independent LU from using up too many unreserved session control blocks.
/modeltypes:model (,model, …)
Values for TN3270 model types are:

model2, model3, model4, model5

3275_2, 3276_2, 3277_2, 3278_2, 3278_2_E, 3279_2, 3279_2_E

3276_3, 3278_3, 3278_3_E, 3279_3, 3279_3_E

3276_4, 3278_4, 3278_4_E, 3279_4, 3279_4_E

3278_5, 3278_5_E, 3279_5, 3279_5_E
