4.4.2.1 Fields

Field Name Description
LMID This name is the logical machine name or gateway ID. Give it a unique name up to 16 characters. Example: (bankmach1)
DNS The host name that the domain name service recognizes.
HOST ADDRESS The TCP/IP dot address. Example: (199.99.99.99)
PORT NUMBER The TCP port. Check with the TCP/IP administrator for available ports. Example: (1234)
SECURITY The status of connection-level security. Y specifies that security is on and N denotes that security is off.

Note:

For additional security information, refer to the “Configuring Oracle TMA TCP Security” section.
ACCOUNT ID An eight-character ID. This ID must be the same ID that is used on the Oracle Tuxedo-side configuration. Coordinate with the Oracle Tuxedo Administrator. Required if there is an entry in the PASSWORD field. Example: (CICS001A)
PASSWORD An eight-character password. This password must be the same as on the Oracle Tuxedo-side configuration. Coordinate with the Oracle Tuxedo Administrator. Required if there is an entry in the ACCOUNT ID field. Example: (LETMEIN2)
MAX QUEUE SIZE Specifies the size of the local queue where requests are stored for servicing. A typical setting is 200.
MAX MSG SIZE The largest message allowed to be sent across this connection. The maximum is 32000. Example: (4096)
RETRY LIMIT If the connection fails, this number determines how many attempts the system makes to reestablish the connection before marking the connection disabled. Example: (5).
LMID TYPE
The type of gateway the remote system is running (C for CICS, I for IMS, T for TCP, X for Tuxedo Older versions (12.1.3 and earlier))

Note:

For additional information on LMID Type X, refer to the “Configuring Oracle TMA TCP Security” section.

LMID Type X is invalid for TMA TCP Gateway 12.2.2 and the latest versions.
START TRANID The ID of the transaction to be started if the remote system type is CICS.
CICS DATA A string to be passed to the IBM TCP/IP Listener for use with the TMA TCP for CICS gateway. The default is " ".
MULTIPLEX CNT The number of concurrent requests for each connection.
MIN TIME The minimum length of time (in milliseconds) for a socket read to wait for data to be processed.
MAX TIME The maximum length of time (in milliseconds) for a socket read to wait for data to be processed.
DELTA TIME The time increase (in milliseconds) from MIN TIME to MAX TIME.
IDLE TIME The amount of time in seconds that a connection is idle before it is closed. IDLE TIME must be a smaller amount of time than REQ IDLE TIME. A typical setting is 30 seconds.
REQ IDLE TIME The amount of time in seconds that a Requester is idle before it terminates. A typical setting is 120 seconds.
LATENCY TIME Network time and system processing time added to give a true system wait time (in seconds).
MAX CONNS The maximum number of connections the Requester opens. The maximum value is 50 for IBM TCP/IP.
QUEUE NAME 1 The unique name of a TS Q that is used for communications between the Pre-requester and the Requester.
QUEUE NAME 2 The unique name of a TS Q that is used for communications between the Pre-requester and the Requester.
AUTO ENABLE LMID(E|D) This field is used for auto enabling of LMID. Enter E to automatically enable a disabled Requester LMID for TMA TCP for CICS gateway. Enter D Kriito disable the automatic enabling of a disabled Requester LMID for TMA TCP for CICS gateway.
