Short Application Name

This is a 1 to 12 character identifier used to identify this particular ePortal presentation application.  In particular, this string is used to generate AE alias names in the exported OS 2200 OSI-TP config/in element. This name can include letters, digits, and hyphens only.

OS 2200 Host Name

The Domain Name Server (DNS) name of the OS 2200 server on which the Open DTP application resides.

This value must match one of the addresses configured in the OSI-TP config/in element for the MLOCAL AE Alias.

OS 2200 Port Number

The port number that is used to connect to OSI-TP on the OS 2200 server.

This value must match one of the addresses configured in the OSI-TP config/in element for the MLOCAL AE Alias. The value can be between 1 and 65535.

The default value is 2476.

OS 2200 AE Title

The Application Entity (AE) Title for OSI-TP on the OS 2200 Server.

This value must match the AE Title configured in the OSI-TP config/in element for the MLOCAL AE Alias.

ePortal AP Title

The Application Program (AP) Title for the ePortal presentation application.  The AP Title uniquely identifies a particular ePortal presentation application.

The AP Title combined with the AE Qualifier (see below) form the AE Title for the ePortal presentation application.  In particular, the AE Title consists of the AP Title, followed by a dot, followed by the AE Qualifier.  The ePortal AE Title must match the AE Title configured for a remote AE Alias in the OSI-TP config/in element on the OS 2200 server.

The default value for the AP Title is generated from a Windows GUID so that it is unique for each particular ePortal presentation application. You may override this with your own value, but you must make sure that each ePortal presentation application uses a unique value.

ePortal AE Qualifier

The Application Entity (AE) Qualifier for this particular instance of this ePortal presentation application. Each concurrent execution of this ePortal presentation application must have a unique AE Qualifier.

The AP Title (see above) combined with the AE Qualifier form the AE Title for the ePortal presentation application.  In particular, the AE Title consists of the AP Title, followed by a dot, followed by the AE Qualifier.  The ePortal AE Title must match the AE Title configured for a remote AE Alias in the OSI-TP config/in element on the OS 2200 server.

When you deploy this presentation application to the ePortal platform, the ePortal runtime software automatically sets the AE Qualifier to the ePortal Web Partition number, so you do not need to explicitly configure this value.

When you run this application in test mode, you must define an integer to differentiate yourself from any other developers who may run this particular ePortal presentation application concurrently.  You should assign a unique integer greater than or equal to 1000 to each developer on your team to ensure uniqueness.

OS 2200 Character Set

The character set used for the data that is transferred to and from the OS 2200 server. Refer to Translation Considerations.

Reply Timeout (seconds)

The amount of time in seconds allowed for a reply to be received.  The value can be any 32 bit integer.

The default is 20 seconds.

OS 2200 Link Layer Password

If OSI-TP on the OS 2200 server is configured to use link layer security, you must supply the password for the OS 2200 MLOCAL AE.

If link layer security is not in use, leave this value blank.

Refer to the topic "OSI-TP Link Level Security" in OS 2200 OSI-TP High-Performance Transaction Processing for XATMI (HTP/x) Implementation and Administration Guide (2750 2558) for more information.

Confirm Password

If you entered a value for OS 2200 Link Layer Password above, reenter the value here to verify your entry.

Compression

If you want to enable OSI-TP data compression, check this box.

When compression is enabled, the ePortal runtime software compresses a data buffer before sending it to OSI-TP on the OS 2200 server.

Buffer Trace

If you want to enable buffer tracing check this box.

When buffer tracing is enabled, the ePortal runtime software traces all user buffers sent to and received from OSI-TP on the OS 2200 server.

Default Open DTP Service Name

This value is optional and can be left blank.

Whenever an ePortal server message is sent to the OS 2200, the value of the metadata field tpservicename__ is used as the Open DTP service name; however, if the field tpservicename__ is null or empty, then the value of the default Open DTP service name is used instead. Refer to Metadata Fields for more information.
