LINCS Features
707021-001
• Map LU 0FFh for all SNA Hosts (hex, disable=00) - allows you to map LU ‘FF’ to a
different LU as defined by the hex value entered. For example, if a hex value of ‘55’ is
entered, then LU ‘FF’ in the data stream would be treated as LU ‘55’ in the LINCS
configuration. A value of ‘00’ for this RPQ indicates that LU ‘FF’ will be treated as an
invalid LU.
• MAP “PUBLIC” LUs to “ANY” LUs - will treat an IPX 3270 request for a “PUBLIC”
LU as if it were a request to receive any LU configured for the requested service name.
• Maximize User Disk Space - enabling this RPQ will cause LINCS to limit the amount
of hard disk space set aside for the LINCS operating system to 15 MB, making available
the other 5 MB for features such as LPD Print Serving and Central Site Customization.
This RPQ is normally invoked on older LINCS platforms that have only a 20 MB hard
drive installed.
• Multiple LFS LUs per host - enhances Local Format Storage to allow multiple LFS LUs
on a single host.
• NetView RPQ1 - Machine Type - allows alerts generated by a LINCS nodes to be interpreted
the same as the would be if generated by an IBM 3174.
• NetView RPQ2 - Product Class - allows alerts generated by a LINCS nodes to be
distinguished from similar alerts generated by an IBM 3174.
• Pass Write Structured Fields to LU3 TN3287 Client - when enabled, LINCS will pass
Write Structured Fields to an LU3 TN3287 client if the client indicates that extended data
streams are supported. If not enabled, LINCS will not forward the Write Structured field.
• Presentation Space Update in File Transfer Mode - the PCs screen buffer is used instead
of LINCS’ for PCs executing file transfer programs such as IND$File and FFTERM.
• Prevent TN3270 Connect Panel if Host is Disabled - this option prevents the painting of
the connect panel on the client’s screen unless the host connection is functional.
• Restrict TN3270 LU Requests to those Configured - when enabled, this RPQ protects a
Host and LU entry in the TN3270 Client Definition panel from being used by another client
other than the one with the IP address specified by the entry. When not enabled, other
clients may obtain the resource by merely requesting it. Tab/Backtab keys stop at colons
and tabs - when enabled, the cursor will stop at a colon in addition to a space after a field
attribute when the Tab and Backtab keys are pressed.
• UNBIND before NOTIFY power-off sequence - when a LAN-based client disconnects
from LINCS, forcing an UNBIND and a NOTIFY to be sent, the UNBIND will be sent first
if the RPQ is enabled, and NOTIFY will be sent first if the RPQ is disabled.
• Upper Case Translate of all data keys - all keys are converted to upper case. Use device
model size to validate.
• Bind - accepts or rejects the session bind based on the device POR information vs. Extended
Function Features capabilities.
• Use scan codes in WSC mode - transmit key scan code vs. key position.
RPQ Configuration and Management
Configuration - RPQs are enabled or disabled from the RPQs menu in Configuration. The
RPQs Menu is manually entered from the Configuration menu. It will not automatically appear
as you are paging through the Configuration Panels.
