RJE/XL Node Manager's Guide
Configuration Problems
Configuration problems with RJE/XL can occur on both the HP 3000 as well
as the host.
HP 3000 Configuration Problems
Listed below are some configuration problems that can occur on a 900
Series HP 3000 computer.
* PSI interface card problems
Ensure that you correctly configured the physical path field of the
RJEConfiguration: Linkdata screen. Be sure to verify that the card
is seated in the appropriate slot. The location of the interface
card for the HP 3000 Series 930 is different from the location of the
card for the HP 3000 Series 950.
* Configuration file name
Remember when configuring RJE/XL, the configuration file can be named
anything you prefer. However, once you decide to run RJE/XL, the
program will look for a file named NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
* Incorrect parameters/link configuration file
Once a node name has been selected, NMMGR displays the RJE
Configuration: Linkdata screen. This screen allows the user to
define that information that is specific to the BSC protocol.
Some of the values that are often entered incorrectly are listed
below:
* Verify the correct transmission mode between the HP system and
the host (full or half duplex).
* Verify the line type (leased or switched line).
* Verify that the phone numbers in the phone data screen correlate
with those listed on the host.
* Verify that the remote IDs, if used in the RJE Configuration:
RemoteID screen, correlate with those listed on the host.
* Linecode transmission
Ensure that the communications link between RJE/XL and the remote
processor has been defined correctly. While file transmission with
the HP 3000 is generally done in ASCII mode, the transfer of
information to the host must be done in EBCDIC. This must be defined
or passed as a parameter in the RJLINE command.
IBM Host Configuration Problems
Listed below are some configuration problems that can occur on the host.
* Remote IDs associated with or assigned to the link name will not be
recognized by the host.
* User is attempting to sign on to the host with a logon ID that is
already in use.
* User fails to initiate return of all the output that the host wishes
to send back following job submittal. Refer to Appendix D in this
manual for more detail on IBM host configuration problems.
