Sometimes referred to as “Big Blue” IBM is a multinational corporation headquartered in Armonk, New York. It manufactures computer hardware and software and provides information technology and services.
In XRF (CICS/VSE only), a terminal belonging to a class mainly comprised of TCAM(DCB) terminals. These terminals lose their sessions at takeover. The CICS Transaction Server equivalent of this is class 3 terminal.
Industry:Software
Pertaining to a status where the optical image associated with the selected image catalogue entry is active or loaded in the selected virtual optical device. The installation software will be able to access this image during the installation process.
Industry:Software
In the OSI Communications Subsystem licenced program, a nickname for the higher portion (a set of names that are higher in the hierarchy) of an application entity's distinguished name. The authority nickname refers to that portion of the application entity's distinguished name above the application process common name. The authority nickname can be shared by many application entities.
Industry:Software
In XRF (CICS/VSE only), a terminal belonging to a class mainly comprised of VTAM terminals that are not eligible for class 1. For these terminals, the alternate system tracks the session, and attempts reestablishment after takeover. The CICS Transaction Server equivalent of this is class 2 terminal.
Industry:Software
Pertaining to a status where the optical image associated with the selected image catalogue entry that is not active or not loaded in the active virtual optical device. Only image catalogue entries with a status of mounted or loaded can be accessed through the virtual optical device.
Industry:Software
In the OSI Communications Subsystem licenced program, a set of values that determine the transport layer functions to be used on an association.
Industry:Software
In XRF, a planned shutdown of the active system, and takeover by the alternate system, for maintenance or operational reasons.
Industry:Software
Pertaining to a system of numbers to the base 10. The decimal digits range from 0 through 9.
Industry:Software
In the OSI Communications Subsystem licenced program, a set of values that represent the communications services requested when establishing an association. If the application entity uses the presentation layer services, the application mode specifies both presentation layer and session layer values; if the application entity uses the session layer services, the application mode specifies session layer values only. The application mode also indicates the transport mode to be used for an association.
Industry:Software
In XRF, a series of processes by which the alternate CICS system monitors the active CICS system for a lapse of activity in order to detect potential failure conditions requiring a takeover. The active and alternate CICS systems use the CAVM surveillance mechanism to monitor each other's well-being.
