Chapter 8 Using the TIBCO Service Gateway for IMS TM : Selecting a TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM Program Style

Selecting a TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM Program Style
You can choose from among eight different client styles. Each style corresponds to a different IMS TM program name. These programs are installed as part of the TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM interface.
TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM Client Programs
The following table lists the available client programs. The IMS Program Type column shows if the client is conversational (C) or non-conversational (NC).
Client Program Name
S6BLOGON or user supplied
External user ID a or USERID parameter
External user ID a or USERID parameter

1
The external user ID is obtained from the terminal I/O PCB or can be set by your installation TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM exit routine (refer to Customizing TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM Client Programs for more information).

Choosing the Right TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM Client Program
Match your style requirements with the appropriate TIBCO Object Service Broker IMS TM client program name listed in the following table.
Client Program
IMS conversational transaction client: has a Scratch Pad Area (SPA) and supports TIBCO Object Service Broker screen I/O.
IMS non-conversational transaction client: no SPA. TIBCO Object Service Broker supports TIBCO Object Service Broker screen I/O but you must install the IMS Physical Input Edit/Exit routine.
Non-seamless interface, first segment is session parameter string, second segment is user data. Use R= in session parameter string or user ID’s user profile to set the first rule.
Seamless clients do not support the RULE parameter for session startup; the name of the rule is obtained from the user profile associated with the IMS transaction name. This rule is run with no arguments and with ACTION, SEARCH, BROWSE/NOBROWSE, and TEST/NOTEST parameters set based on user profile values or on the TIBCO Object Service Broker defaults. The rule obtains the input message segments using MAP tables or the $GETENVCOMMAREA tool.
