Specifies the name of the remote network in which the adjacent control
point (the host) resides. This entry field will only accept alpha-numeric
characters and the “@”, “#”, and “$” characters. Blank spaces are not valid.
The Common Programming Interface (CPI) - Communications
partner_LU_name of the host, consists of the host remote network identifier
and the host remote location. For example, if the host partner_LU_name is
USIBMSU.S10A4045, then the Host Network ID is USIBMSU.
Host Location Name
Specifies the remote location name (of the host) to which the 3494 will
communicate. This entry field will only accept alpha-numeric characters and
the “@”, “#”, and “$” characters. Blank spaces are not valid.
The Common Programming Interface (CPI) - Communications
partner_LU_name of the host, consists of the remote network identifier and
the remote location. For example, if the host partner_LU_name is
USIBMSU.S10A4045, then the Host Location Name is S10A4045.
Host Adapter Address
Specifies the LAN adapter address of the remote controller (the host). This
can be the host adapter card universally administered address (UAA), such
as 10005A1E3338, or a locally administered address (LAA), such as

eight hexadecimal bytes. If only five bytes are entered, the prefix 05D will
be used.
Note: XID is optional for APPC and APPC/VTAM hosts. Not applicable for
TCP/IP hosts.
The following are the push-buttons:
OK The information on this window will be used to add a LAN attached host to
the library system.
Cancel
Close this window without adding a host operation.
Help Display the help panel.
If APPC/VTAM is selected as the communications protocol, an Add LAN Host to
Library pop-up window as shown in Figure 119 on page 188 will appear. This allows
a LAN connected host such as VSE/ESA to be added to the 3494 configuration. Fill
