NAME

sna3179g, sna3270, sna3770, liblu62.a − IBM* 3179G/3192G, 3270, 3777 terminal emulator and APPC API

Remarks:

The following descriptions are provided as a very brief overview of selected SNA (Systems Network Architecture) utilities that are available as optional software for use with the HP-UX operating system. For more information refer to system documentation provided with the software. For purchasing information, contact your nearest HP Sales and Support Office.

DESCRIPTION

sna3179g IBM 3179G color graphics display terminal emulator. sna3179g runs in the foreground as an X11 Window System client program. To start sna3179g, the SNALink product, snanuc(1M), must be running. Refer to the HP-UX SNA3179G and Gateway/SNA3179G Reference Manual for more detailed information.

sna3270 Provides the standard subset functionality of an IBM 3278 terminal or IBM 3287 Printer. Connection to the SNA host is provided through snanuc(1M) which must be running before sna3270 can be used. These two processes together make the HP 9000 system appear to the rest of the SNA network to be a 3274 Cluster Controller with attached 3278 Display Stations and 3287 Printers. Additionally, sna3270 is capable of handling double-byte characters using IBM’s Double-Byte Character Set (DBCS) protocol. Supported DBCS languages include Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

sna3770 Emulates the major features of an IBM 3777 Model 1 Communications Terminal. Software emulation of a card reader, card punch, printer, basic exchange data sets (diskette), and console provide the capability for remote job entry and file transfer to an SNA host.

The sna3770 command starts one or more background monitors which send files queued by send3770(1) and receive files sent by the SNA host. It also does any necessary initialization of SNA3770 system files.

liblu62.a Gives application programmers working on an HP 9000 the means to implement Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC) applications distributed between an HP 9000 and an IBM -compatible host. liblu62.a is a set of library functions which allow HP 9000 programmers to create APPC applications, commonly called Transaction Programs ( TP s), that can exchange data and control information with cooperating TPs on the host.
