Chapter 2 SNA NRJE Installation Guidelines
To run SNA NRJE on your HP 3000, you and your HP representative must
install the product and configure both your HP 3000 environment and the
host system to support SNA NRJE. As part of the configuration process,
you must ensure that the HP 3000 parameters match those on the host side.
The necessary parameters are described in Chapter 3 of this manual.
This chapter assumes that installation tasks are divided between you (the
node manager) and your HP representative.
Before the HP representative arrives to install SNA NRJE on the HP 3000,
you must do the following:
1. Ensure that the modem link operates between the HP 3000 and the
host. If you use HP modems, Hewlett-Packard will help you verify
that these modems work.
2. Configure the host according to the procedures detailed in the HP
SNA Products guides (see the list of related publications in the
preface of this manual).
Be sure to obtain a copy of the host system generation. Your HP
representative will need this information later during SNA NRJE
installation.
3. Ensure that the host system has the hardware and software
requirements as listed in the SNA NRJE User/Programmer Reference
Manual.
4. Ensure that the SNA link product has been installed by an HP
representative. Remember, the SNA link product includes hardware
(the INP and cable [for SNA Link/V] or the PSI and cables [for
SNA/SDLC Link/XL and SNA/X.25 Link/XL]) and software (SNA
Transport).
NOTE Although SNA NRJE and SNA IMF can use the same SNA link, you must
configure each service. For example, if you are installing SNA
NRJE on a system that has SNA IMF, you must configure workstations,
logical readers, logical writers, and so forth. Also, SNA NRJE and
SNA IMF require separate Logical Units (LUs). For example, to use
the same SNA link, you should devote LUs W through X to SNA NRJE
and LUs Y through Z to SNA IMF, or vice versa.
After you do these preliminary installation tasks, your HP representative
takes over and completes the installation of the software required for
using SNA NRJE. Your HP representative installs the NRJE software and
changes the I/O configuration, if needed.
