4. For database name (5), determine the name of the host database. This is
the LOCATION NAME for OS/390 or MVS, the RDB_NAME for VM or
VSE, or a relational database name for AS/400.
5. For mode name (6 and 15), usually the default IBMDRB is sufficient.
6. For remote network address (8), determine the controller address or local
adapter address of the target host or AS/400 system.
7. Determine the local control point name (10) of the DB2 Connect
workstation. This is usually the same as the PU name for the system.
8. Determine the local LU name to be used by DB2 Connect (11). If you
use a Syncpoint Manager to manage multisite updates (two-phase
commit), the local LU should be the LU used for the SPM. In this case,
that LU cannot also be the Control Point LU.
9. For local LU alias (12), you usually use the same value as for the local
LU name (11).
10. For local node or node ID (13 plus 14), determine the IDBLK and
IDNUM of the DB2 Connect workstation. The default value should be
correct.
11. For symbolic destination name (16), choose a suitable value.
12. For (remote) transaction program (TP) name (17), it is recommended that
you use the defaults listed in the worksheet.
13. Leave the other items blank for now (18 to 21).
Step 2. Update the APPC Profiles on the DB2 Connect Workstation
Use the completed worksheet in Table 5 on page 68 to configure DB2 Connect
APPC communications for access to a remote host or AS/400 database server.
Go to the sections that describe how to configure APPC communications on the
platforms that are present in your network:
