Defining APPLIDs for Platform Server Batch Interface and ISPF Panels

If you use the platform server for z/OS client software using SNA LU6.2 communications, you must define the platform server client APPLIDs on any z/OS instance on which the client runs.

For multiple clients to run simultaneously, the platform server requires that you add a suffix from 00 to 99 to a four-character prefix. Typically, ACBNAME is defined the same across all the z/OS systems while APPLID is unique for each system.

See the following sample of platform server APPLID definitions:
FUSNA00  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN00,MODETAB=USERMODE            
FUSNA01  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN01,MODETAB=USERMODE            
FUSNA02  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN02,MODETAB=USERMODE           
FUSNA03  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN03,MODETAB=USERMODE           
FUSNA04  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -

               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN06,MODETAB=USERMODE                 
FUSNA07  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN07,MODETAB=USERMODE                 
FUSNA08  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN08,MODETAB=USERMODE                 
FUSNA09  APPL  AUTH=(NOPO,ACQ,VPACE),DLOGMOD=#BATCH,             -
               APPC=YES,ACBNAME=FUSN09,MODETAB=USERMODE
