Issue/Introduction

Does CA NetMaster Network Management for TCPIP use CCW with EXCP ?

Environment

Release: SLOPFC00200-12.1-NetMaster-File Transfer Management
Component:

Resolution

CA NetMaster Network Management for TCPIP does not use CCW with EXCP.

Additional Information

We have looked at this recently and I can advise that the only use of EXCP in our products (apart from indirect use by dataset, VSAM and VTAM macros ? where the EXCP is in IBM code) is in the 3270 native terminal support in the SOLVE:SSI.

This support is only used where customers use SOLVE:Operations started SUB=MSTR and want to have a session with the region before VTAM or the TCP/IP stack become active. I have only had 1 customer issue with this and I don’t know that many customers use it.
