Communications Access Methods for SAS/CONNECT and SAS/SHARE Software

OS/390: VTAM LU 0 Access Method

SAS/SHARE

Client

The following example illustrates the statements that you specify in a configuration file on the OS/390 client:

luprefix=sascon
lufirst=1
lulast=10

LUPREFIX SASCON is specified with the LUFIRST and LULAST options to form ACBNAME LU names ranging from SASCON01 to SASCON10.

See Setting SAS Options for details about these options.

The following example illustrates the statements that you specify in an OS/390 client configuration file to access a server with the VTAM access method:

options comamid=vtam;
libname sasdata 'edc.prog2.sasdata' server=share1;

The VTAM access method is declared. The LIBNAME statement specifies the data library that is accessed through the server SHARE1.

Server

The following example illustrates the statements that you specify in a configuration file on the OS/390 host at which you start a server:

comamid=vtam
lu0sec=_trust_
luprefix=sascon
lufirst=1
lulast=10

The VTAM LU 0 access method is declared. The value _TRUST_ for the LU0SEC option sets server security, by requiring clients to supply a userid and a password that are valid on the server. LUPREFIX SASCON is specified with the LUFIRST and LULAST options to form ACBNAME LU names ranging from SASCON01 to SASCON10.

The following statements in a SAS session on the OS/390 remote host start a server:

proc server id=share1;
run;

The server SHARE1 is started on the OS/390 remote host.
