If you wish to use openFT-FTAM during operation with TNS, the local application $FTAM must be defined. This is done automatically during new installation or full installation and update installation if CMX is installed and if no $FTAM entry is present. The local application $FTAM is used for all request with FTAM partners (outbound and inbound).
Special points
With the TCP/IP-LAN transport system, two entries must be made for the symbolic name:
an RFC1006 entry with the transport selector. Enter the relevant symbolic name $FTAM as transport selector. The entry must be made TRANSDATA format (indicator T).
a LANINET entry with the port number. The port number is specified in ASCII format.
Unix systems:
You must make the entry in a defined format (see samples).
More details on this topic can be found in the CMX manual.
The GLOBAL NAME $FTAM is fixed. T'$FTAM' is recommended for the transport selector. The entries PSEL V'' and SSEL V'' are absolutely necessary.
Windows systems:
You make the entries via the TNS User interface GUI.
More details on this topic can be found in the online help of the TNS User interface.
The GLOBAL NAME $FTAM is fixed. T'$FTAM' is recommended for the transport selector. You can choose any presentation selector and session selector you want. You are recommended to choose the empty format unless the partners require another specification.
