Batch Node Name     (Overview)

DESCRIPTION
A Sun MTP system may be configured for connection to a Sun MBM node.
Such a connection allows processing of batch jobs that access VSAM
datasets present in the Sun MTP system. The Sun MBM Node Name datapoint
specifies the Sun MBM node configured for connection to the Sun MTP system
being monitored. 

The Sun MTP VSAM Configuration Table (VCT) may be updated to establish 
a connection to a specific Sun MBM node. This datapoint represents the 
'Sun MBM Node Dir' field of the VCT.

VALUES
If a value exists in the Sun MTP systems VCT 'Sun MBM Node Dir' field, it
is reflected in this datapoint. Otherwise, the Sun MBM Node Name will 
have a value of "N/A".


INTERPRETATION
The value of the Sun MBM Node Name datapoint may be examined in conjunction 
with the Sun MBM Connection datapoint to determine if the Sun MTP system
is properly configured for connection to a Sun MBM node.
If the Sun MTP system is not configured, batch jobs submitted to Sun MBM 
node cannot access VSAM datasets maintained in that system. A Sun MTP 
system configured for connection to a Sun MBM node does not guarantee an 
established connection. The connection can be verified by examining system
messages written to the Sun MTP system log file, $KIXSYS/unikixmain.log.
