Required and Optional Entry Fields for VSAM TCP/IP Server Setup

Group Box	Term	Description
Login	VSAM Server	A symbolic or dotted numeric TCP/IP address, for example: MVS or 123.123.123.123
	User ID	Your 1-8 character TSO logon ID. All characters convert from lowercase to uppercase.
	Password	Your 1-8 character TSO password. All characters convert from lowercase to uppercase.
Server Type	CICS
Server Type	Started Task	Select Started Task.
VSAM Operating System		Select z/OS.
Started Task Parameters	Link into Target Load Library	Link into Target Load Library Required for both the CICS and Started Task z/OS CONNX installation options. A fully-qualified partitioned data set name into which the CONNX Started Task C++ object code is linked. This can be a new partitioned data set, or an existing PDS. In the current example, the target load library is CONNX.STASK.LOAD.
	VOLSER	The DASD volume serial on which the new CONNX load library is created. Specify a VOLSER and a UNIT to create the PDS on a specific volume, or leave both fields blank to accept the system defaults. If linking into an existing PDS, leave the VOLSER and UNIT text boxes blank.
	UNIT	The DASD device type (3380, 3390, etc.) of the above VOLSER. Omit if the VOLSER field is blank.
CONNX Server Data Set	CONNX DSN Prefix	CONNX DSN Prefix A one- or multi-part high-level data set prefix, which is used to create the CONNX installation sequential and partitioned data sets on the target host. In the current example, the installation prefix is CONNX.STASK. See the DSN Prefix Data Sets table for a description of the data sets created with this prefix.
	VOLSER	Optional: The DASD volume serial on which the CONNX.STASK sequential and partitioned data sets are created.
	UNIT	Optional. The DASD device type (3380, 3390, etc.) of the above VOLSER. Omit if the VOLSER field is blank.
VSAM Samples	VSAM Samples Prefix	Required if the Create check box is checked. A one- or multi-part high-level data set name prefix used to create the CONNX sample VSAM, QSAM, and partitioned data sets. Given the default data set profix of CONNX.STASK, the VSAM, QSAM, and partitioned data sets listed in VSAM Objects for CONNX.STASK.SAMPLES are created and loaded with sample data.
VSAM Samples	VOLSER	Required if the Create check box is checked. The DASD volume serial on which the CONNX.STASK.SAMPLES VSAM, QSAM, and sample partitioned data sets are created.
