Conventional Channel Configuration dialog box displays the first
local conventional channel high-level configuration. The displayed
configuration is a CEC/IMC Manager-stored configuration, not a
CEC/IMC-stored configuration. Channel Selection range = 1 – 255.
To select a different channel, click in the text box, enter (type) the new
channel number, and then select elsewhere within the dialog box, or
press the Tab key to advance to the next text box. The entire dialog
box will update per the CEC/IMC Manager-stored conventional
channel configuration for the entered channel.
CEC/IMC conventional channel configurations are stored in
the CCI and CI Boards. CEC/IMC Manager conventional
channel configurations are stored on the CEC/IMC Manager
hard disk drive. No facility exits to read CEC/IMC
conventional channel configurations; therefore, to ensure
CEC/IMC and CEC/IMC Manager configurations match for
the selected channel, a save and send, or send (automatically
saves), of any changes must be performed.
As previously mentioned, upon entering the
Conventional Channel Configuration dialog box, the first local
conventional channel configuration is displayed and this is usually
channel 1. However, in a StarGate network the first local conventional
channel could be 1, 65, 129, 193, or 1, 33, 65, 97, etc. in accordance
with CEC/IMC switch assignment number and the UF_CONV.EXE
program configuration. See StarGate Network Conventional Channels
on page 3-145 for additional information.
LID (Logical ID)
Every conventional channel requires a unique (unused) LID number
assignment from the System Manager's unit database. The LID text box
provides entry for this number for the currently selected channel. LID
range = 1 – 16382. Default = currently selected channel number. To
enter a LID number, select (or Tab to) the text box, type the required
LID number, and then select elsewhere within the dialog box or press
the Tab key again.
