Host Hardware and Software Requirements
Hardware Requirements
Host hardware requirements for SNA NRJE are as follows:
* An IBM System/370-compatible mainframe, such as the Model 370, 43xx,
or 303x.
* An IBM 37xx-compatible communications controller that supports an SNA
line. An HP 3000 can also be connected to the communications
controller via an IBM 3710 network controller.
Software Requirements
Host software requirements for SNA NRJE are as follows:
* MVS/SP or MVS/XA operating system with JES2 or JES3 job entry
subsystem
or
* VSE operating system with VSE/POWER and both
* ACF/VTAM telecommunications access method
* ACF/NCP network control program.
CAUTION Hewlett-Packard has not verified the NRJE product with all
possible combinations of host system software releases. We are
continually certifying with new host system software releases.
Check with your Hewlett-Packard representative for the most
up-to-date list.
Hewlett-Packard does not require that the customer run on one of
the verified versions. However, not doing so applies limits to
Hewlett-Packard's liability in addition to the normal limits.
Because of the certification problems imposed by the host system
versions, Hewlett-Packard must restrict its support policy in
the following ways. The resolution of all problems will fall
into one of the categories listed below: If a problem is caused
by incorrect operation of the Hewlett-Packard product,
Hewlett-Packard will repair the product.
If a problem is caused by incorrect operation at the host,
(a) Hewlett-Packard may require that the user change to a known
working version of the software;
(b) Hewlett-Packard may elect to change the Hewlett-Packard
product to conform to the situation.
As always, Hewlett-Packard will in good faith attempt to solve
the problem with the customer.
