added to the 3494 configuration. Fill in the following fields:
Host Alias
The alias for a host is a customer supplied nickname for that host. This is
an optional field and may be left blank if an alias is not desired. This entry
field will only accept alpha-numeric characters and the “.” character.
Host Transaction Program Name
Specifies the name of the LAN transaction program that runs on the host to
receive data from the Library Manager. For example, on the AS/400, the
LAN transaction program name is QMLD/QMLDSTRCC. This entry field will
only accept alpha-numeric characters and the “/” character. Blank spaces
are not valid.
