Defining an LU 6.2 connection on IBM i
Define the LU 6.2 communications details by using a mode name, TP name, and connection name of a fully qualified LU 6.2 connection.
The initiated end of the link must have a routing entry definition to complement this CSI object. Further information about managing work requests from remote LU 6.2 systems is available in the IBM i Programming: Work Management Guide.
See the Multiplatform APPC Configuration Guide and the following table for information.
| Remote platform | TPNAME |
|---|---|
| z/OS or MVS | The same as in the corresponding side information about the remote queue manager. |
| IBM i | The same as the compare value in the routing entry on the IBM i system. |
| HP Integrity NonStop Server | The same as the TPNAME specified in the receiver-channel definition. |
| UNIX and Linux systems | The invokable Transaction Program defined in the remote LU 6.2 configuration. |
| Windows | As specified in the Windows Run Listener command, or the invokable Transaction Program that was defined using TpSetup on Windows. |
If we have more than one queue manager on the same computer, ensure that the TPnames in the channel definitions are unique.
- Initiating end (Sender)
Use the CRTMQMCHL command to define a channel of transport type *LU62. - Initiated end (Receiver)
Use the CRTMQMCHL command to define the receiving end of the message channel link with transport type *LU62.
