Re: LU 6.2 without a 3745?

[Strasser, [EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Thanks everybody! Armed with the information you provided, I spoke with the network manager. It turned out he thought we were doing LU 6.2 out to clients, not just to MVS. We will do the 6.2 over the CTC, and switch from LU 2 to TN3270 out to the clients.   I read up on the Communications Server for Linux, and it sounds pretty sweet. Perhaps I can sell that to the SNA network folks to ease the migration off the 3745s. ;)     Victor   Victor Strasser  [EMAIL PROTECTED] VM, Teradata, and Linux Support Unit California Department of Technology Services Phone: 916-464-4522 From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Boyes Sent: Monday, June 26, 2006 1:34 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: [IBMVM] LU 6.2 without a 3745?   Isn’t the CTC between VM/VTAM and MVS a PU4/5? It’ll burn CPU like crazy compared to doing the routing in the 3745, but it should work.   David Boyes Sine Nomine Associates From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Strasser, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 26, 2006 4:30 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: LU 6.2 without a 3745?   My SNA networking folks tell me that all our 3745s are going away because the hardware is going out of support. We plan to use CTCs to connect VM/VTAM to an MVS system to route RJE, and most terminal sessions are already TN3270.   But we also have a CMS application that uses AVS to talk to an MVS application over LU 6.2., and I was told “For LU 6.2 sessions, there is no alternatives unless you have a PU 4/5.” It frankly seems very unlikely that we are just SOL on LU 6.2 without a 3745. What do we need to make this work?
