This manual is for anyone involved in 3270-type data communications between
an HP 3000 and an IBM host. It is for any of the following types
of users:
Application programmers, who develop
applications that use SNA IMF intrinsics to communicate with applications
running on a remote host.
People responsible for training and supporting SNA
IMF users.
HP node managers or HP 3000 system managers responsible
for HP 3000 data communications. The HP 3000 SNA node manager
is responsible for overall HP-to-IBM data communications.
Some portions of this manual apply specifically to users of
Asian terminals and printers with double-byte characters sets (DBCS).
Each of these audience types should be familiar with the pertinent operating
characteristics of the host system in an SNA environment and have
a working knowledge of Multiprogramming Executive (MPE), the operating
system for the HP 3000.
