6998.0. "peer server : more station on one qllc link" by MLNORO::BAREZZI () Thu Jan 30 1997 10:36

    Hello.
    We have a peer server with one sincronous line running with a qllc 
    connection. The peer server configuration is with one TG, one Station 
    and one XID to present to VTAM a single 'line' with a single 'pu' and
    32 'lus'. 
    
    Now the customer want to add other lu's, exceeding the present 32, 
    therefore as far as we know we have to add, on the peer server, 
    another  station.
    
    We add it on the same QLLC link, but now we can run the two station 
    only in alternate way, i.e. if the first one is up the second one is 
    down and viceversa.
    
    The question is : is it possible to have more than one station running
    on the same QLLC link ? What parameter(s) has to be considered ?
    
    Thank You for any help.

	Are they using the same X.25 parameters on the station entity?
	Do you have two TGs defined? Both pointing to the same QLLC station?
	Or to different stations?

	Yes, it should work.

6998.2DEFINITIONS FOR 2 STATIONS ON 1 QLLC LINKMLNORO::BAREZZIFri Jan 31 1997 09:31117
Hello.

Regarding the exact configuration to have more station on the same QLLC link 
this is the schema used to associate TG, XID, STATION and QLLC:

	--------------	--------------
	| TG-1 -XID1 |	| TG-2 -XID2 |
	--------------	--------------
	|    STN-1   |	|    STN-2   |
	--------------	--------------
	       |	       |
	------------------------------
	|            QLLC-0	     |
	------------------------------



Following the config. definition and the trace when tring to activate the 
second one station. It's appened that only one station can be activated at the same 
time.



Thank You again for any help / suggestion !

Ciao,

                Dan.

RE:                     <<< Note 6998.2 by MLNORO::BAREZZI >>>

Dan,

You didn't mention what return message, if any, you get from NCL when you try to
activate the second TG. 
Also, we would like to see a trace with the 1st TG becomming active and then 
trying the second station.

Thanks
Craig
