Re: SNA usage and ObjectConnect

IBM has published an Enterprise Extenders implementation guide.
It is at
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/common/ssi/pm/rg/n/iso03001usen/ISO03001USEN.PDF

It gives an overview of the EE architecture, discusses EE configuration,
and provides information on how to migrate from existing SNA environments
to EE.

The replacement for Anynet is Enterprise Extender..

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/systems/scope/i5os/topic/rzajt/rzajtentext.htm?tocNode=toc:rzahg/i5os/10/3/0/4/2/5/


"Enterprise Extender is a networking architecture that allows Systems
Network Architecture (SNA) applications to run over IP networks using
High Performance Routing (HPR).

Enterprise Extender is the preferred way to run SNA applications over
IP networks with communications input/output adapters (IOAs), such as
Gigabit Ethernet, because these IOAs do not require an input/output
processor (IOP). Communications adapters that do not use an IOP do not
support SNA. Therefore, Enterprise Extender is required to run SNA
over these adapters. It is recommends that Enterprise Extender be used
in place of AnyNet®."

6.1 is the end of the line for Anynet. I've not heard anything about a

Hi Tom

Yes; IMO it works great. Be aware that Anynet is slated for replacement

at

some stage.

Can you use ObjectConnect on the virtual Ethernet between LPARs? I made a
brief attempt a long time ago and gave up on it, but am thinking about
adding more LPARs and it might be handy.
