If I understand correctly, you can connect multiple "systems" together, for example with Enterprise Extender to replace subarea connections. All the tn3270 sessions can point to one "system" which is the "central" manager. Then the user may request an application which exists on one of the other systems and be routed appropriately.

No. My understanding of CMC is a seperate LPAR to front-end communications. ... I'm sorry. I asked the wrong question in my frustration with trying the get to the answer. Of course, a CMC is never 'required'. But, is it supported in a TCP/IP environment. Management's goal is to get rid of SNA. Will we still be able to use a CMC? (That was my original [as yet, unanswered] question) Also, where is CMC management/support/etc documented? -teD In God we Trust! All others bring data! -- W.
