LOCALNODE

Description

Identifies the name of the node for this system, when the IBM Session Manager Networking feature is used to link several IBM Session Manager systems.

This parameter is applicable to the SYSTEM control statement (see SYSTEM statement).

Format

LOCALnode nodename

Default: LOCALNODE LNssaaaa, where ss is the z/OS SYSCLONE value (a two character id which uniquely identifies the z/OS system within a Sysplex) and aaaa is the four byte character representation of the two byte hexadecimal ASID.

Usage

Each system is termed a node in the network and each node name specified must be unique. This parameter may only contain the characters @ $ A-Z 0-9.

Note: In this document, the 0x7C (that is, x'7C') character is always presented as the @ sign. It may be displayed as a different character in some non-English code pages. You should enter the appropriate 0x7C character symbol for the code page you are using.

For IBM Session Manager networking to function, the local node must be defined, together with one or more links to other systems in the network. (See the LINK statement definition in the Technical Reference manual.) The NETMAN names of other nodes in the network and routes to these remote nodes are determined dynamically by IBM Session Manager.

When a remote session is specified, the remote nodename is used to identify on which system the remote session should be started.

If Eclipse is being used, then a LOCALNODE parameter must be specified.
