Describes the client name and other names you must provide as you configure an IMS-enabled printer.
In the process of configuring printers for an IMS-enabled enterprise server, you must provide a client name and other names in several areas of configuration. This can be tricky. Consider the following as you complete the configuration process:
- The TN3270 client name is ultimately the IMS LTERM name that identifies the printer.
- This client name must also appear in the
Enterprise Server security system as a user ID. The printer operates under
Enterprise Server with the security authorization assigned to this user ID.
- When attached to
Enterprise Server, this client name appears as the printer's
Net Name on the
Enterprise Server ESMAC
Clients page.
- If this client name/Net Name is not defined to
Enterprise Server with a specific TERM definition, it is assigned the characteristics of the
Enterprise Server TERM model definition with the model name of TN32871.
- The TN3270 printer emulator
Terminal Type definition must default to or be specified as
IBM-3287-1. The TN3270 client name and terminal type are the controlling definitions.
- Associated
Enterprise Server definitions are used if they match the names specified in the TN3270 client.
