- I have a problem configuring SNA Services :
-
- We want to have two MVS mainframes, not connected via VTAM links. RS/6000
- workstations connect, via LU6.2, to applications running under CICS.
-
- The idea behind two mainframes is to have a split of processing and to
- provide a recovery facility. We need to have RS/6000 applications connect
- simultaneously to both mainframes, so I figure we need to have two PU
- definitions on the RS/6000. I can't get this to work - I keep getting
- 'device already in use' messages when I try to bring up the second PU. I'm
- fiddling the configuration at the moment since we don't have two mainframes;
- my configuration is only talking to one VTAM via 2 token-ring interfaces
- on a 3745.
-
- So, has anyone done anything similar who can help ? Presumably, APPN
- support would solve this problem in the coming year ?

- Tony
