DESCRIPTION
HP SNA Printer Emulator for OpenVMS
(PrE) is an
OpenVMS layered software product that allows suitably
con
fi
gured OpenVMS systems to receive printable data
from IBM host-based applications. These applications
will originally have been developed to produce output for
an IBM 3287 printer in system mode that is connected to
an IBM 3274 cluster controller in a Systems Network Ar-
chitecture (SNA) networking environment. Access from
the IBM system to OpenVMS systems is via one of the
following SNA servers or gateways:
TCP/IP or DECnet Connections
•
HP SNA Peer Server
•
HP SNA Domain Gateway
•
HP SNA Access Server for Windows NT
®
•
HP SNA Server for OpenVMS Alpha
, a layered prod-
uct that supports local access as well as TCP/IP and
DECnet clients
DECnet Only Connections
•
HP DECnet SNA Gateway for Synchronous Trans-
port
•
HP DECnet SNA Gateway for Channel Transport
•
HP SNA Server for OpenVMS VAX
, an OpenVMS
VAX layered product that supports local access as
well as remote DECnet clients
In an actual IBM 3287 environment, data transfer is one
way (from host to printer) and generates hard copy. The
PrE Access software will allow OpenVMS users to direct
the received output either to be printed via the Open-
VMS Print Symbiont or spooled to a disk
fi
le.
