This document covers the following topics:
If you are using Entire Operations in a multi-CPU environment, you must define node numbers for machines. Networks and jobs can thus be defined to run under Entire Operations control on different nodes.
To define nodes to Entire Operations
Select the option Definition of Nodes from the System Services Menu.
The Operating System Server Table appears with a list of nodes which have already been defined:

| Column | Meaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Server Name | User-defined node name. | |
| Node | Entire System Server or UNIX node number. | |
| AM (Access Mode) |
N - use Network for Mainframe nodes (default for node numbers 1 - 255). B - use Broker (default for node numbers 256 - 999). L - local node (invoked directly on on the machine where NOP is running; for NOP on Unix and Windows only). |
|
| Op.Sys. | Operating system under which the node is running as received from the last SYSTEM-INFO call to Entire System Server or UNIX/Windows system information. | |
| Wait a.E. | Wait after error. Time in minutes to wait until next node access after a temporary error. | |
| z/VSE Sysid | The SYSID defined for a z/VSE node is added to the job card of jobs submitted on this node. | |
| SSU | Submit Security User Type. If empty, the system-wide default is in effect for this node. | |
| Time Diff. | Time difference between local time and GMT in hours if node is in a different time zone. | |
| Valid | Possible values: | |
| yes | Node can be used. | |
| no | Node has been disabled. | |
You can maintain node definitions using the available line commands and PF keys.
The following subsections describe the functions you can perform.
To add a node definition
Press PF2 (Add) from the Operating System Server Table.
A window opens in which you can enter the node definition:

Meaning of the input fields:
| Field | Meaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Node Number | The node number can be in the range from 1 to 99999. | |
| Short Name | A mnemonic short name for the node. The mnemonic short name can be used instead of the node number in various locations. This can be defined in a user profile setting. | |
| Node Name | Unique, user-defined node name. For nodes with access mode N: enter a short description to help the user select an appropriate node for network or job run. For nodes with access mode B: enter the name of a UNIX or Windows node (server) as it appears in the SAT and Entire Broker definitions. This field is case-sensitive. |
|
| Access Mode |
N - use Network for Mainframe nodes (default for node numbers 1 - 255). B - use Broker (default for node numbers 256 - 999). L - local node (invoked directly on on the machine where NOP is running; for NOP on Unix and Windows only). |
|
| Time Difference | Difference between local time and GMT in hours if node is in a different time zone. Input format: xn, where: | |
| x | is a plus or minus sign (+ or -) and | |
| n | is any number from 0 to 12. | |
| z/VSE Sysid | This ID is added to the job cards of jobs submitted on this node. Range: 1 to 9. | |
| Wait after Error | Time in minutes to wait until
next node access after a temporary error. Default: 5 minutes. |
|
| Submit Security User Type | The submit security user type can
be set individually for each node. If this field is left blank, the
global default will apply
to this node. Please refer to the Monitor Defaults for the possible values of this field. |
|
| Valid | You can disable the use of a node. Possible values: | |
| Y | Allow use of node. | |
| N | Disable use of node. | |
Press Enter to save the node definition.
Press PF3 (End) to return to the list of nodes.
The new node should now appear in the list.
UNIX and Windows nodes (i.e. NPR servers) must be defined in the following locations as well:
SYSSATU / SATSRV (see the subsection SAT in Client/Server Environments in the SAT Installation Documentation.)
Entire Broker parameters. You can omit these definitions for the Monitor node, if this node is accessed in local mode (see explanation of field Type).
Entire System Server/UNIX or Windows initialization file npr.ini (see Step 4: Customize the NPR Server).
Note:
For each combination of UNIX or Windows node and user ID, at
least one successful login (by LOGON
SERVER) must have been made, before this combination can be used
within the NOP Monitor. These LOGON
SERVER commands must be repeated after a password modification on a
UNIX or Windows system.
To modify a node definition
Enter M in the line command input field
of the selected node in the Operating System Server Table and press
Enter. The Node Definition window opens with the current
definition.
You can modify the definition by overtyping the current values.
Press Enter to save the modifications.
Press PF3 (End) to close the window and return to the Operating System Server Table.
To delete a node definition
Enter D in the line command field of the
selected node in the Operating System Server Table and press
Enter.
A window opens in which you can confirm deletion by entering the node number.
Enter the node number and press Enter to perform the deletion and close the window.
To add a special definition for a mainframe node
Enter S (Specials) in the line command
field of the selected mainframe node in the Operating System Server Table and
press Enter. The following window opens:
