RSCS Generation Procedure The AXSLINKS COpy file is a list of 1 to 64 GENLINK macro statements.
The GENLINK macro defines the attributes of a link. The first GENLINK
macro in the AXSLINKS file must contain the ID of the local RSCS station. You must also code the TYPE=driverid operand with a valid
filename on this first GENLINK macro. You should code additional
GENLINK macros, with no operands, for links you may want to define
temporarily during an operating session.
The format of the GENLINK macro is:
r------------------------------ I I r , , GENLINK I I ID=linkid, TYPE=dri verid[ ,CLASS=c] I I , [ , KEEP=holdslot] 1 I I [ , LI NE=vaddr ] I I , [ ,TASK=taskname] I , I L J L
ID=linkid is a 1-to 8-character alphameric location ID of the remote
location to be served by the link. If this operand is not
specified, the ID defaults to "undefined." TYPE=driverid CLASS=c is a eMS filename of a file which is the TEXT file for the
line driver to be used to process files the link.
The appropriate line dr iver program to be specified depends on
the type of remote telecommunications facilities to be used.
The TYPE operand must specified if is coded. If
the TYPE operand is omitted, TYPE defaults to "undefined".
is the spooling class (es) of the files which can be processed
by the active link. ,-You can specify up to four spooling
classes (single alphameric characters from A to Z and 0 to 9)
with no intervening blanks, or *, which means all spool file
classes may be If the CLASS operand is not
specified, the default is "*". KEEP=holdslot
LINE=vaddr
is a decimal number from 0 to 16 which designates the number
of virtual storage file tag slots to be reserved for exclusive
use by the link. If the KEEP operand is omitted, a default
"holdslot" value of 2 is assumed.
designates the virtual device address of a permanent
telecommunications line port, to bensed for processing files
on the' link. If the LINE operand is omifteo., the defaul t 'is "undefined". TASK=taskname is a 1-to 4-character alphameric identifier. It specifies
the task name to be used by the line driver associated with
the link. If the TASK operand is omitted, the default is "undefined". Part 3. Generating VM/370 (CP, eMS, RSCS, and IPCS) 281

RSCS Generation Procedure
CREATING THE LAXLINES COPY FILE
The LAXLINES COPY file defines the virtual device addresses of the
telecommunications line ports (attached to the RSCS virtual machine)
which may be shared among the various active links. Such line ports
must be switch able, and the links which are to use these line ports must
have switched line ports available at their remQte stations.
The LAXLINES COpy file consists of a list of GENLINE macro
statements, one for each line port. The format of the GENLINE macro is
as follows:
r , I GENLINE I LINE=vaddr , L __________________ --____________ _
LINE=vaddr
is the virtual device address of a switched telecommunications
line port available to RSCS. CREATING THE TAGQUEUE COPY The TAG QUEUE COPY file specifies the total number of virtual storage tag
slots to be available to RSCS. The format of the GENTAGQ macro is:
r I GENT AGQ
L Nurr=totslots NU"=totslots is a decimal number to 512 that defines the total
number of . virtual storage"tag slots to'·be made available to RSCS for storing inforntion on 'f·iles enqueued for
transmission or received froa! remote Files which
cannot be enqueued for because 'no free virtual
storage tag slots aretavailabl>e are left pending, and are
automatically accepted .. a. t a later time as virtual
storage tag slots You must specify a numbet for totslots that is at least as
large as the sum of linkijtag slots or implied by the
KEEP=holdslot operand of all the macros.
Generation Procedure forRSCS Before you perform the RSCS generation procedure, be sure you have the
following: • The V!/370 system PUT tape • A V"/370 directory entry for your RSCS virtual machine • A V"/370 directory entry for the software system support
machine (for example, the MAINT entry supplied with the
starter system directory).
