The following communications software is required in order to run the DOS TSM client using 3270 emulation:
OR
To configure the DOS client for communications, you must first create the client options file (dsm.opt) and then, modify it with the minimum required settings.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |copy dsm.smp dsm.opt | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
For example, if the node name assigned during registration was client1, make the entry as follows:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |nodename client1 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The command string can also contain any sequence of keystrokes such as clearing a logo and perhaps switching to a particular VTAM panel. For example, the following string clears the screen, gets the VTAM applications panel up, and logs on to the TSM server:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |@C IBMVAMP@E LOGON APPLID(DSMLU)@E | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
DSMLU is the application id defined by the systems programmer as discussed earlier in VTAM Setup. The letters preceded by the @ are action keystrokes, like clear or enter. These are explained in Installing the Clients.
You are now ready to verify the adequacy of the server installation by starting up the DOS Client.
