This ドキュメント describes how to configure a Natural Web I/O Interface server.
Where applicable, specific information for z/OS, z/VSE, VM/CMS or BS2000/OSD is provided.
The following topics are covered:
Web I/O Interface Server Configuration File for z/OS and z/VSE and VM/CMS
Web I/O Interface Server Datasets for z/OS, z/VSE and VM/CMS
The following topics are covered:
A Natural Web I/O Interface server requires the following z/OS language environment parameter configuration:
| Parameter | Definition | |
|---|---|---|
POSIX(ON) |
Enables a Natural Web I/O
Interface server to access the POSIX functionality of z/OS. If you start a
Natural Web I/O Interface server server with POSIX(OFF), it
terminates immediately with a user abend U4093 and the
system message EDC5167. IBM supplies the default
"OFF".
|
|
TRAP(ON,NOSPIE) |
Defines the abend handling of the LE/370 environment: | |
ON |
Enables the Language Environment condition handler. | |
NOSPIE |
Specifies that the Language Environment will handle program interrupts and abends via an ESTAE, that is, the Natural abend handler will receive control to handle program interrupts and abends. | |
If you do not specify
TRAP(ON,NOSPIE), the Natural abend handling does not work
properly. IBM supplies the default (ON,SPIE).
|
||
TERMTHDACT(UADUMP) |
Defines the level of information
that is produced in case of an abend. The option UADUMP generates
a Language Environment CEEDUMP and system dump of the user address
space. The CEEDUMP does not contain the Natural relevant storage
areas. IBM supplies the default (TRACE).
|
|
ENVAR(TZ=…) |
The ENVAR option
enables you to set UNIX environment variables. The only environment variable
applicable for the Natural Web I/O Interface server is TZ (time
zone). This variable allows you to adjust the timestamp within the Natural Web
I/O Interface server's trace file to your local time.
Example: ENVAR(TZ=CET-1DST) CET - 1 hour daylight saving time |
|
You can set the z/OS language environment parameters:
With the PARM parameter specified in the
EXEC card of the Natural Web I/O Interface server startup job. The
length of the options is limited by the maximum length of the
PARM parameter.
Assemble an LE/370 runtime option module CEEUOPT and
link it to the Natural Web I/O Interface server load module.
If you configure the Web I/O Interface server to impersonate the Web
I/O Interface clients in the server (Web I/O Interface server configuration
parameter SECURITY_MODE=IMPERSONATE
or IMPERSONATE_LOCAL), the Web I/O Interface server must run
"program-controlled". Under RACF, the following definitions are
required for the Web I/O Interface server:
The resource BPX.SERVER must be defined and the Web I/O
Interface server account must have READ access to this resource.
The LOAD datasets defined in the Web I/O Interface
server startup job definition must be defined to the program class
"**".
ralt program ** addmem('natural load library') uacc(read)
ralt program ** addmem('NWO load library'//NOPADCHK) uacc(read)
ralt program ** addmem('user load library'//NOPADCHK) uacc(read)
SETR WHEN(PROGRAM) REFRESH
SSL support for the Natural Web I/O Interface server is based on the z/OS Communication Server component AT-TLS (Application Transparent-Transport Layer Security).
AT-TLS provides TLS/SSL encryption as a configurable service for sockets applications. It is realized as an additional layer on top of the TCP/IP protocol stack, which exploits the SSL functionality in nearly or even fully transparent mode to sockets applications. AT-TLS offers three modes of operation. See z/OS Communications Server, IP Programmer’s Guide and Reference. Version 1, Release 9, Chapter 15, IBM manual SC31-8787-09.
These modes are:
The sockets application runs without modification in transparent mode, unaware of performing encrypted communication via AT-TLS. Thus legacy applications can run in secured mode without source code modification.
The application is aware of running in secured mode and is able to query TLS status information.
The sockets application is aware of AT-TLS and controls the use of AT-TLS encryption services itself. This means, the application is able to switch between secured and non secured communication.
Natural Web I/O Interface server uses the Basic mode for its SSL implementation. That is, a server configured as SSL server rejects requests from non-secured clients.
Certificates, which are to be used with AT-TLS, can be maintained in two ways under z/OS. They are stored either in RACF key rings or in key databases, which are located in the z/OS UNIX file system. Which of these proceedings actually applies is defined in the AT-TLS Policy Agent Configuration file for the z/OS TCP/IP stack, which is used by the Natural HTTPS client.
IBM delivers a set of commonly used CA root certificates with each z/OS system delivery. If key rings are going to be used to hold server certificates, those root certificates must be manually imported into the key rings by the system administrator. If IBM delivers newer replacements for expired root certificates, all affected key rings have to be updated accordingly.
Unlike key rings, key databases contain the current set of root certificates automatically after they have been newly created. However, the need for maintaining always the latest set of root certificates applies to the key database alternative as well.
In RACF, digital certificates are stored in so called key rings. The
RACF command RACDCERT is used to create and maintain
key rings and certificates, which are contained in those key rings.
See z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator’s Guide, IBM manual SA22-7683-11, and z/OS Security Server RACF Command Language Reference, IBM manual SA22-7687-11.
Alternatively to RACF, certificates can be kept in key databases,
which reside in the z/OS UNIX services file system. For the creation and
maintenance of key databases, the GSKKYMAN utility has to be used.
See z/OS Cryptographic Services PKI Services Guide and Reference, IBM manual SA22-7693-10.
Proceed as follows:
In the TCP/IP configuration file, set the option TTLS
in the TCPCONFIG statement.
Configure and start the AT-TLS Policy Agent. This agent is called by TCP/IP on each new TCP connection to check if the connection is SSL.
Create the Policy Agent file containing the AT-TLS rules. The Policy Agent file contains the rules to stipulate which connection is SSL.
See also z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide, Chapter 18 Application Transparent Transport Layer Security (AT-TLS) data protection.
The Sample Policy Agent file defines the server with the job name
starting with NWODEV and listening at port 4843 to use SSL.
The sample expects the certificate database on the HFS file /u/admin/CERT.kdb.

Under z/OS, SSL certificates can be produced with the UNIX System
Services utility GSKKYMAN. The following steps have to be executed
for the production of a new certificate, which is to be used for the SSL
secured communication between Natural Web I/O Interface client and server:
Start a shell session out of TSO or connect via telnet to the z/OS UNIX shell.
Start GSKKYMAN.
Create a new – or open an existing key database.
Create a self-signed certficate, for example, of type "User or server certificate with 2048-bit RSA key".
Export the certificate to a (HFS) file. Choose Base64 ASN.1 DER as export format.
This generated file can now be copied to the Natural Web I/O Interface client(s) using FTP with ASCII transfer format. On the client side, the received file should be stored with the file name suffix .CER. The certificate can now be used by the Natural Web I/O Interface client.
If certificates are kept in a RACF key ring, the generated certificate
has to be imported into the appropriate key ring using the
RADCERT command.
Certificates, which are produced on a different platform, for example, on a Windows PC, can be imported into a RACF key ring or into a key database as well.
Detailed information about the use of the GSKKYMAN
utility can be found in the IBM Communications server documentation, e.g in the
following manuals:
z/OS Communications Server IP Configuration Guide Version 1 Release 2 (IBM manual SC31-8775-01
or
z/OS Communications Server Cryptographic Services System Secure Sockets Layer Programming (IBM manual SC24-5901-04).
For the generation of certificates under Windows, a free downloadable
utility named Ikeyman is available on several websites. Ikeyman is an IBM
product as well and maps the functionality of GSKKYMAN to the
Windows platform.

The Natural Web I/O Interface server reads its configuration parameters
from a file which resides as an S-type member in the NWO-JOBS
library.
注意:
NWO-JOBLIB. It has to be passed to the system in
the startup procedure parameter NWO-SYSPARM.
The following topics are covered below:
The Natural Web I/O Interface server requires the following SMARTS
SYSPARM parameters:
| Parameter | Definition | |
|---|---|---|
RESIDENTPAGE |
This parameter specifies one ore
more programs which are loaded into the SMARTS load-pool during system startup.
The following members must be defined in the SMARTS resident area:
NATRNWO, NATMONI, Natural front-end
(NCFNUC) and Natural nucleus.
|
|
SERVER |
The following SERVER definitions are required for the Natural Web I/O Interface server: | |
SERVER=(POSIX,PAENKERN,CONF=PAANCONF) |
The POSIX server. | |
SERVER=(NCFNATnn,NCFNATnn)
|
The Natural buffer pool server. The size of the various Natural
buffer pools is configured in the parameter string of the NWO configuration
parameter SESSION_PARAMETER.
|
|
SERVER=(NWOSERV,PAENAPPS,NATRNWO,'
SERVERID') |
The NWO server SERVERID. | |
CDI_DRIVER |
The CDI (Communication Driver Interface) drivers specify the various I/O routines and/or tasks of SMARTS as well as the physical access paths for sequential files and PFS-container files. If necessary for technical reasons, these routines are implemented as separate tasks (socket communication, physical file I/O, etc.). The others are executed in the oc-task (main task) or in one of the worker-tasks (e.g. console I/O). | |
CDI_DRIVER=('console,PAANCNIO') |
The console server. | |
CDI_DRIVER=('file,PA2SFIO,SIOTSK=
JOBNAME') |
The file I/O task JOBNAME
(SYSOUT, traces, etc.).
|
|
CDI_DRIVER=('tcpip,PAAZSOCK,SOCKTSK=
JOBNAME') |
The socket task JOBNAME. | |
CDI_DRIVER=('CIO,PAAQBIO,PFSTSK=') |
The PFS task JOBNAME running the CDI driver CIO. | |
CDI_DRIVER=('PFS,PAANPFS,LRECL=4096,
CONTAINER=CIO:AAA/BBB/CC') |
Defines the container file $USERID.AAA.BBB.CC for
the Portable File System (PFS); see also Using SMARTS PFS under
BS2000/OSD.
|
|
MOUNT_FS |
MOUNT_FS=('PFS://','/')
|
Mapping of (PFS) file names to the appropriate physical BS2000/OSD container file; see also Using SMARTS PFS under BS2000/OSD. This parameter maps (POSIX) filenames to a physical BS2000/OSD container file for the specified PFS. |
DATA-MAXIMUM |
DATA-MAXIMUM=nnnn |
Maximum possible CMP size for DATA in MB (over
all sessions). This parameter limits the maximum size of the data common memory
pool. At SMARTS startup, the data CMP is enabled with the specified size,
however, real storage allocations within the pool are done on demand only in
the actually requested size (For more information, please refer to the
BS2000/OSD executive macros manual: ENAMP / REQMP macros).
|
CODE-MAXIMUM |
CODE-MAXIMUM=nn |
Maximum possible CMP size for (shared) Code in MB. This parameter limits the total size of all routines loaded, such as the SMARTS kernel itself, NWO and the Natural nucleus. |
THREAD-GROUP |
THREAD-GROUP=(DEFAULT,(DEFAULT,0,n)
|
Establishes the default thread-group with
n threads. Only the num
subparameter is of importance. This value defines the number of sessions that
can be active and kept in storage in parallel; see also the
WORKLOAD and TASK-GROUP
parameters.
|
TASK-GROUP |
TASK-GROUP=(DEFAULT,n) |
Specifies the number of active worker-tasks. The value
n should correspond to the specified number of
threads. Only the num subparameter is of importance.
This value defines the number of worker-tasks (BS2000/OSD tasks) that can
execute NWO Natural sessions in parallel. Evidently, this parameter value
should correspond to the number of available threads as defined by the
THREAD-GROUP definition!
|
THSIZEABOVE |
THSIZEABOVE=nnnn |
Specifies the SMARTS thread size (in KB) which has to contain
all buffers of one Natural session. This parameter specifies the size of the
SMARTS threads which have to contain the Natural thread
(NTHSIZE parameter, defined in the parameter module
NCFPARM). A certain headroom (20% or more, depending on your
environment) is recommended. If the Natural Web I/O Interface server
initialization fails with NAT9915 GETMAIN for thread storage
failed, this parameter must be increased.
|
WORKLOAD-AVERAGE |
WORKLOAD-AVERAGE=n |
The average number of sessions active in parallel. This
parameter defines the expected average number of Natural sessions (not users,
since one user can start more than one session!) which are to be executed by
the server. This parameter must not be confused with the
THREAD-GROUP
parameter, because it represents the sum of all active and inactive sessions.
|
WORKLOAD-MAXIMUM |
WORKLOAD-MAXIMUM=nn |
The maximum possible number of sessions active in parallel. This parameter defines the maximum possible number of Natural sessions. |
ADASVC |
ADASVC=249 |
The Adabas SVC number must not be changed. |
注意:
The parameter values printed in italics
(SERVERID, JOBNAME,
PFS, nnn, etc.) are to be
specified by the user.
The following general parameter descriptions are adapted excerpts from the original SMARTS documentation. The text is provided for background information only. Therefore, not all of the information contained therein applies to the Natural Web I/O Interface server under SMARTS on BS2000/OSD.
This parameter is for internal use only. Do not change the Adabas SVC number.
| Sysparm | Use | Possible Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
RESIDENTPAGE |
The name of a program to be loaded and made resident when SMARTS is initialized. | program-name
|
none |
All modules are assumed to be reentrant, and are loaded into the address space automatically at first reference.
The program must be fully reentrant. If it is not marked reentrant, a warning message is issued on the operator's console at SMARTS initialization time.
The program must reside in the APS-LIB or in the
NWO-MOD library of the SMARTS initialization procedure.
| Sysparm | Use | Possible Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
SERVER |
Information that identifies a server to SMARTS. | server-information | none |
The server-information has the format
(serv-id,init-mod,p1,p2,pn)
- where
serv-id
|
is the ID for this server (1-8 characters). |
init-mod
|
is the name of the initialization/termination routine. |
p1,p2,pn |
are parameters to be passed to the initialization routines. |
Specifying the SERVER parameter causes SMARTS
to build a server directory entry (SDE) for the specified server and pass
control to the initialization routine specified to initialize the server.
| Sysparm | Use | Possible Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
TASK-GROUP |
A group comprising one or more tasks, available when SMARTS is started. | (grp,
num, priority,
maxq) |
(DEFAULT,
num)
|
- where
grp
|
Required. The name of the task group being defined. The
default task group is DEFAULT.
|
num
|
Required. The number of tasks to be allocated in the task group. The default number of tasks is calculated dynamically based on the size of the installation. |
priority
|
Not supported under BS2000/OSD. |
maxq
|
The maximum number of TIBs (default 16) expected on this task group's work queue at the same time. Under normal circumstances, the default should be adequate. When there are problems and it is not, a secondary Last In First Out (LIFO) queue is used so that no work is lost. The normal queue is First In First Out (FIFO), which ensures that work is done in the order in which it is received. This is why the LIFO queue is only used as a secondary backup. |
重要:
For SMARTS, only the TASK-GROUP DEFAULT is
available. Software AG strongly recommends that you use the default definition.
If other products running on SMARTS require changes to the defaults or allow
the definition of their own TASK-GROUPs, that will be
indicated in the relevant documentation.
注意:
DEFAULT must always exist in the
system. If it is not explicitly defined by the installation, the task group is
built by the system with the default values.
MAXTASKS specification. This is not checked
until the task groups are being built; however, exceeding the value leads to
task-group allocation errors as against parameter errors.
| Sysparm | Use | Possible Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
THREAD-GROUP |
A thread group containing one or more thread subgroups and threads, to be available when SMARTS is started. | see below | see below |
The format for the value is
(grp,(sub,size,num,cpu, real, key),...,(sub,size,num,cpu,real,key))
- where
grp
|
Required. The name of the task group being defined. |
sub
|
The name of the subgroup being defined. If a subgroup name is specified more than once for the same group, the last valid specification is used when parameter processing has been completed. |
size
|
Required. The amount of storage in kilobytes to be allocated for each thread below the line. A valid value is between 8 kilobytes and 1 megabyte. |
num
|
The number of threads to be allocated in the thread subgroup. The value must be greater than 1 and less than 4096. Generally, this subparameter is required. It can be omitted for one (and only one) thread subgroup in the address space; in this case, the number of threads to be allocated for the subgroup is calculated dynamically by SMARTS, based on the size of the installation. |
cpu
|
The CPU time in seconds (default 0.00) that a user program
can use in the thread subgroup for one SMARTS transaction. This value may be
entered as an integer or to a level of hundredths of seconds using the
n.nn format. If a 0 is provided as the
CPUTIME for a thread subgroup, no CPU limit is placed on programs running in
the associated threads.
|
real
|
The wait time in seconds (default 0.00) for the thread
subgroup, after which a message is issued to the console if the user program
has not given up control of its thread. This value may be entered as an integer
or to a level of hundredths of seconds using the
n.nn format. If 0 is specified, elapsed
time is not checked for the thread subgroup.
|
key
|
The key (default M) in which the threads within the subgroups
are allocated:
M - The thread keys are a mixture of user keys excluding the
key in which SMARTS is running. |
注意:
The user may also specify a value in the range 1 to 15 inclusive
to allocate a thread to that key explicitly.
The default value is
THREAD-GROUP=(DEFAULT,($DEFAULT,8,num))
- where num is calculated dynamically based on the size of the installation.
重要:
For SMARTS, only THREAD-GROUP DEFAULT is
available. Software AG strongly recommends that you use the default definition.
If other products running on SMARTS require changes to the defaults or allow
the definition of their own THREAD-GROUPs, that will be
indicated in the relevant documentation.
注意:
THREAD-GROUP statement is used, the same group name must be
specified to relate the subgroup entries.
THSIZEABOVE
parameter is allocated above the line for each thread defined as a result of
the THREAD-GROUP parameter.
DEFAULT must always exist in the
system. If it is not explicitly defined by the installation, the thread group
is built by the system with the default values. If it is defined, the system
ensures that a thread subgroup with a thread size at least as large as that
required by DEFAULT is allocated. If not, the system allocates an
additional subgroup for the group. If too many subgroups have been defined, the
last one defined is overwritten to allow for the default specification.
| Sysparm | Use | Possible Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
THSIZEABOVE |
The amount of storage above the 16 MB line, in multiples of 1024 bytes, to be allocated to each thread. | n |
1024 |
The WORKLOAD-AVERAGE parameter specifies a
normal workload value, and the WORKLOAD-MAXIMUM
parameter specifies a maximum workload value. SMARTS uses these values togther
with the region sizes above and below the 16 MB line to configure itself.
These parameters are not required, but tuning them may improve performance.
| Sysparm | Use | Possible Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
WORKLOAD-AVERAGE |
The average number of parallel processes expected to run in SMARTS. | 1-32767 |
WORKLOAD-MAXIMUM divided by 4.
|
WORKLOAD-MAXIMUM |

A configuration file is allocated to the name
<serverid>C (for example,
NWOS1C) or STGCONFG alternatively.
The configuration file is a text file located on a dataset or on an HFS file under z/OS and a librarian member under z/VSE and a librarian member under VM/CMS.
注意:
Under VM/CMS, the configuration file is a text file of type RTS
located on one of your accessed disks.
The configuration file contains the server configuration parameters in
the form of a keyword=value syntax. In
addition, it may contain comments whose beginning is marked with a hash symbol
(#).
See also the Web I/O Interface Server Configuration File Example shown below.
The following Web I/O Interface server configuration parameters are available:
The current version of NWO presumes to run with the most recent version
of Natural. An error NAT7729 NWO and Natural version do not agree
is issued when running with older Natural versions. This is because NWO must
negotiate a subset of functionality with the client at a time when the involved
Natural version is not already known.
If you want to run NWO with a previous version of Natural, you can set
this parameter to YES. It is recommended that you leave this
parameter at its default value if you intend to run your NWO with the most
recent version of Natural, because in this case
COMPATIBILITY_MODE=YES would unnecessarily limit the
functionality.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
YES |
Accept also older versions of Natural.
Results in a limitation of the functionality documented with the most recent version. |
NO |
Presume to run with the most recent version of Natural. This is the default value. |
Example:
COMPATIBILITY_MODE=YES
This configuration parameter specifies the name of the Natural front-end to be used to start a Natural session. The front-end resides on a PDS member.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
frontend-name |
Natural front-end to be used. Maximum length: 8 characters. |
No default value is provided.
Example:
FRONTEND_NAME=NATvrsSV
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS only.
The values of this configuration parameter may be used to specify additional options for the Natural front-end.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
01
|
Do not use the Roll Server. This is the default value. |
02 |
Clean up roll file at server termination. |
04 |
Write GTF trace. |
08 |
Write ETRACE.
|
10 |
Front-end automatic termination. |
20 |
Write console information. |
You may combine the above options as desired in that you add their values and set the result as shown in the example below.
Example:
FRONTEND_OPTIONS=07
The setting in this example enables the Options 01,
02 and 04.
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS only.
This optional configuration parameter contains additional Natural front-end parameters as specified in the Startup Parameter Area.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
parameter-name
|
You can define multiple parameters. Each parameter
specification is a pair of 8-character strings, the first containing the
parameter keyword and the second the parameter value, for example:
FRONTEND_PARAMETER = 'MSGCLASSX ' |
No default value is provided.
For further information, refer to the section Natural in Batch Mode in the Natural Operations for Mainframe documentation.
Example:
FRONTEND_PARAMETER='MSGCLASSX '
The setting in this example specifies that the default output class for
CMPRINT is "X".
If an abend occurs in the server processing outside the Natural processing the abend is not trapped by the Natural abend handling. For this reason the NWO server has its own abend recovery.
It is recommended that you leave this parameter on its default value in
order to limit the impact of an abend to a single user. If you set the value of
this parameter to NO, any abend in the server processing
terminates the complete server processing. That is, it affects all users
running on that server.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
YES |
Trap abends in the server processing, write a snap dump and abort the affected user. This is the default value. |
NO |
Suspend the server abend handling. |
Example:
HANDLE_ABEND=NO
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS and z/VSE and VM/CMS.
This optional configuration parameter is necessary only if the server host supports multiple TCP/IP stacks.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
host-name |
If HOST_NAME is specified, the server
listens on the particular stack specified by HOST_NAME,
otherwise the server listens on all stacks.
|
No default value is provided.
Example:
HOST_NAME=node1
or
HOST_NAME=157.189.160.55
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS, z/VSE and BS2000/OSD.
This configuration parameter defines the password required for some monitor activities (e.g. Terminate Server) performed by the HTML Monitor Client.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
| any character string | The password to be entered at the HTML Monitor Client for some monitor activities. |
No default value is provided.
Example:
HTPMON_ADMIN_PSW=GHAU129B
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS, z/VSE and BS2000/OSD.
A Web I/O Interface server can be configured to host an HTTP monitor task which serves the HTML Monitor Client running in a web browser. It is not required to run this monitor task on each server. A single task allows you to monitor all servers running at one node.
This configuration parameter defines the TCP/IP port number under which the server monitor task can be connected from a web browser.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
1 - 65535 |
TCP/IP port number. |
No default value is provided.
Example:
HTPMON_PORT=3141
This configuration parameter applies to z/VSE, VM/CMS and BS2000/OSD.
This configuration parameter defines the host name of the Web I/O Interface server.
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS and z/VSE in conjunction with the Web I/O Interface server CICS Adapter.
A Web I/O Interface (NWO) server allocates a so-called "server environment" which contains the server dependent common resources.
This environment is unique for each NWO server and relates to the server name. If an NWO server with Web I/O Interface Server CICS Adapter ends abnormally, it might leave a stuck NWO server environment within the CICS region. This causes that a restart of the server fails with error message NAT9913.
If you start an NWO server with IGNORE_PRESENT_SERVER=YES,
it might damage an already running server which is using the same server name
and the same CICS region.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
YES |
Terminate existing CICS server environment. |
NO |
Abort server initialization if a CICS server environment already exist. This is the default value. |
Example:
IGNORE_PRESENT_SERVER=YES
At server initialization, the Natural Web I/O Interface server creates a temporary Natural session to obtain the properties of the installed Natural environment.
This configuration parameter specifies the user ID to be used for this Natural session.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
userid
|
The specified value must not exceed 8 characters, otherwise it is truncated. |
STARGATE
|
This is the default value. |
Example:
INITIAL_USERID=NWOINITU
See also Web I/O Interface clients must be defined to Natural Security in the operating-system-specific Natural Web I/O Interface server Installation section.
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS only.
By default, the remote Natural session of a mapped environment terminates its TCB whenever you switch the focus within Natural Studio to a different mapped environment. If you toggle the focus back, the remote session is dispatched using a different TCB.
The maximum number of active TCBs is equal to the number of connected clients.
The configuration parameter KEEP_TCB specifies
whether the remote Natural session should use the same TCB during its entire
lifetime. This is required if you want to access DB2. It could also be required
if you access 3GL programs which need to be executed under the same TCB for
successive calls.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
YES |
The remote Natural session uses the same TCB during its entire lifetime. |
NO
|
This is the default value. |
Example:
KEEP_TCB=YES
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS and z/VSE.
This parameter allows you to define whether passwords specified in the connection dialog are translated into upper case or not.
This parameter does only apply with
SECURITY_MODE=IMPERSONATE,
IMPERSONATE_LOCAL or IMPERSONATE_REMOTE.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
YES |
Passwords remain in mixed case. |
NO |
Passwords are translated into upper case. This is the default. |
Example:
PASSWORD_MIXEDCASE=YES
This configuration parameter defines the TCP/IP port number under which the server can be connected.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
1 - 65535 |
TCP/IP port number. |
No default value is provided.
Example:
PORT_NUMBER=3140
注意:
Under BS2000/OSD, some port numbers are privileged and
reserved for certain system services. Ask your BS2000/OSD system administrator
for the port number range available to you.
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS and z/VSE.
The Natural Web I/O Interface server offers a security concept that also covers the operating system resources. The client credentials are validated at the operating-system-depending security system and the client request is executed under the client's account data.
Using the SECURITY_MODE parameter, you can
specify at which rank (in batch mode or under CICS) you want
to impersonate the activities of a Web I/O Interface client.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
IMPERSONATE_LOCAL |
Impersonation is done within the Natural Web I/O Interface server environment. If the session is dispatched in a remote TP environment (e.g. in CICS using the NWO CICS Adapter), it is still executed anonymous. The client must be defined in the security system of the Web I/O Interface server. It is not required to define the client in a remote TP environment. For z/OS, see also External Security Configuration. For z/VSE and VM/CMS, see also SYSPARM Parameter SECSYS. |
IMPERSONATE_REMOTE |
No impersonation is done within the Natural Web I/O Interface
server environment. If the session is dispatched in a remote TP environment,
the client is impersonated. The client must be defined in the security system
of the remote TP environment. See also Web I/O Interface server security exit
NATUXRFE and the section
Product
Interaction in the Web I/O Interface Server CICS
Adapter documentation.
注意: |
IMPERSONATE |
Impersonation is done within the Natural Web I/O Interface server environment and in a remote TP environment. The client must be defined in the security system of the Natural Web I/O Interface server and in the remote TP environment. |
No default value is provided.
Example:
SECURITY_MODE=IMPERSONATE
This optional configuration parameter defines session parameters that precede the parameter string specified in the connection dialog of the Natural Web I/O Interface client.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
parameter-string
|
This string may extend across several lines. A + sign at the end of a string line denotes that another line follows. |
No default value is provided.
Example 1:
SESSION_PARAMETER='NUCNAME=NATNUCvr' + 'PROFILE=(NWOPARM,18006,48),ADAMODE=0,' + 'BPI=(TYPE=NAT,SIZE=6044),BPI=(TYPE=EDIT,SIZE=2048)', + 'BPI=(TYPE=SORT,SIZE=1024)'
- where vr stands for the version and release number.
Example 2:
SESSION_PARAMETER=FNAT=(10,930)
The setting in the second example defines that every session on this
Natural Web I/O Interface server is started with the session parameter
FNAT=(10,930) appended to the user-specified parameters
or the definitions in the configuration parameter
DEFAULT_PROFILE.
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS only.
This configuration parameter specifies the number of physical storage threads to be allocated by the Natural front-end, that is, the number of sessions that can be executed in parallel.
注意:
This parameter is obsolete when the Natural Web I/O Interface Server
CICS Adapter is used.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
thread-number |
Number of physical storage threads to be allocated.
注意: |
| 3 | This is the default value. |
Example:
THREAD_NUMBER=5
This configuration parameter applies to z/OS only.
This configuration parameter specifies the size of each physical storage thread which contains the Natural session data at execution time.
注意:
This parameter is obsolete when the Natural Web I/O Interface
Server CICS Adapter is used.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
thread-size |
Size (in KB) of each physical storage thread. |
500
|
This is the default value. |
Example:
THREAD_SIZE=800
This optional configuration parameter enables you to restrict the trace by a logical filter in order to reduce the volume of the server trace output, for example:
TRACE_FILTER="Client=(KSP P*)"
Each request of the user ID "KSP" and each request of the user IDs starting with a "P" are traced.
See Trace Filter in the section Operating the Natural Web I/O Interface Server.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
trace-level |
See Trace Level in the section Operating the Natural Web I/O Interface Server. |
0
|
This is the default value. |
Example:
TRACE_LEVEL=0x00000011
or alternatively
TRACE_LEVEL=31+27
The setting in the example switches on Bits 31 and 27.
This configuration parameter is used to enable or disable the translation of all NWO error messages and trace outputs to uppercase. This feature is for customers who are using character sets with no lowercase characters defined.
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
| YES | Enable uppercase translation. |
| NO | Disable uppercase translation. This is the default value. |
For z/OS:
# This is a comment SESSION_PARAMETER=profile=(stgqa,10,930) fuser=(10,32) CFICU=ON THREAD_NUMBER=2 THREAD_SIZE=700 FRONTEND_NAME=NATOS42L # and another comment PORT_NUMBER=4811
For z/VSE:
# This is a comment SESSION_PARAMETER=profile=(stgqa,10,930) fuser=(10,32) CFICU=ON DEFAULT_PROFILE=DEFPROF FRONTEND_NAME=NATNCF # and another comment PORT_NUMBER=4711
For VM/CMS:
# This is a comment SESSION_PARAMETER=profile=(stgqa,10,930) fuser=(10,32) CFICU=ON DEFAULT_PROFILE=DEFPROF FRONTEND_NAME=NATNCF # and another comment PORT_NUMBER=4711
For BS2000/OSD:
SESSION_PARAMETER = 'NUCNAME=N42LPRRB' + ' PROFILE=(NWOPARM,18006,58),ADAMODE=0,' + 'FNAT=(18006,58),FUSER=(18006,19),FDIC=(18006,11),' + 'FSPOOL=(18006,58),FSEC=(18006,58),CFICU=ON,MENU=OFF,CP=EDF03IRV' THREAD_NUMBER = 3 THREAD_SIZE = 900 FRONTEND_OPTIONS = 0X01 FRONTEND_NAME = NCFSERV PORT_NUMBER = 4811 MONITOR=Y
The Natural Web I/O Interface server requires the following datasets:
STGCONFG |
Defines the server configuration file. |
STGTRACE |
The server trace output. |
STGSTDO |
The stdo dataset. |
STGSTDE |
The stde error output. |
Alternately, you can qualify each dataset name by the server ID. Under z/VSE and VM/CMS, this is necessary if you want to start different Natural Web I/O Interface servers under a single SMARTS address space.
NWOS1C |
Defines the server configuration file for the server NWOS1. |
NWOS1T |
The server trace output for the server NWOS1. |
NWOS1O |
The stdo dataset for the server NWOS1. |
NWOS1E
|
The stde error output for the server NWOS1. |
This user exit is applicable only when the parameter
SECURITY_MODE is set
to IMPERSONATE_LOCAL or IMPERSONATE.
This user exit allows you to adapt the user ID used for the RACF login. It is useful if the RACF user IDs and the user IDs used in Natural differ according to a standardized rule. For example, each RACF user ID is the corresponding Natural user ID preceded by two dollar signs ($$).
If the exit (the loadmodule NSECUX01) is found in the NWO
load library concatenation, it is called before the user is validated against
RACF.
The following parameters are passed to the exit:
| Name | Format | In/Out | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
sUid |
CL64 | I/O | User ID to be modified for RACF login. |
The exit is called using standard linkage conventions.
Sample user exit implemented in C:
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
# pragma linkage (NSECUX01, FETCHABLE)
void NSECUX01(char sUid[64])
{
char sUidTemp[64];
printf("Uex got usid:%s\n", sUid);
strcpy(sUidTemp, sUid);
sprintf(sUid, "$$%s", sUidTemp);
printf("Uex ret usid:%s\n", sUid);
return;
}
The exit above extends each user ID by two preceding dollar signs ($$) when it is used for RACF login.
