RE: SNA (Yes SNA) setup - will it autoconfig?

Rob,

Thanks. At the end of the day it doesn't matter which connection pass thru
uses (actually I _want_ it to use opticonnect) but I want to make sure this
connection is up and running so the easiest way for me to "know" that is to
run a pass thru on the connection. I need this connection for the tape
library (since it won't IP attach until V5R2) but that's all that will be on
this connection.

-Walden

Why do you care which connection that STRPASTHR uses?

In case it does matter.
CRTDEVAPPC DEVD(BUBBA) RMTLOCNAME(RMTLOC) CTL(RMTCTL)
where RMTCTL is the name of the controller on your new line description
STRPASTHR RMTLOCNAME(*CNNDEV) CNNDEV(BUBBA) or you could make a one line
CLP, with a command, which does the above for them.  I was going to suggest
the following:

CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(STRPASTHR) FROMLIB(QSYS) OBJTYPE(*CMD) TOLIB(QTEMP)
NEWOBJ(GOTHERE)
CHGCMDDFT CMD(QTEMP/GOTHERE) NEWDFT('RMTLOCNAME(*CNNDEV) CNNDEV(BUBBA)') I
suggest some other library than QTEMP. Then your users could type in GOTHERE

but RMTLOCNAME is required and has no default.  The advantage to the simple
CLP is no concerns about changing library list, or updating the command if
you put a new release on.

OK. As an update. We have the controllers up and talking to each other (we
varied one on and it autogened the other). However we need to create the
devices for the pass thru. We can't let them autogen since when we say
"strpasthr rmtloc" appn will route that connection over the existing
opticonnect network. We create a DSP type device? On which machine, the one
we're STRPASTHR-ing on? What type, *VRT, no? And the controller is the one
we created above, no? We're hoping that at the end of this we can say
"STRPASTHR *CNNDEV DEV(TheDevWeCreate)" to have the pass through go over the
new lan connection.

Sorry. A 3494 tape library.

Walden,

In your main body you referred to a 3494.  In the PS you referred to a 5494.
Was this a typo?

Two iSeries (actually AS/400s) that need to talk SNA to eachother (actually
to a 3494 tape library). It's been so long since I setup a SNA network I
don't remember it. On V4R5 if I create the lines and vary them on will the
two systems auto config? I already have them talking via opti-connect if
that changes anything.

-Walden

PS. Is it really true that the 5494 won't talk IP to an AS/400 until V5R2?
