FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress/400 DataServer
FIX:
SAA for Netware is a product from Novell that allows a PC connected to a Netware File Server to communicate through the File Server to an AS/400 platform using a modified version on the PC Support program STARTRTR.
Only STARTRTR is modified; all other PC Support commands can be used in their normal respective fashion.
Using Progress/400 Client/Server with SAA for Netware require to "name" the AS/400 that has the desired database. To "name" the AS/400 system, use the -H parameter. The AS/400 "name" is the network name that PC Support uses to connect with (this name can be found in the CONFIG.PCS configuration file, usually stored in the \PCS subdirectory on the PC).
**If SAA is not used, the -H parameter is not necessary**.
Example of connect statement for use with SAA:
CONNECT schmhldr -1 -db AS400db -H S1037999
***Note: This same example of a connection statement can be used if
you are "hopping" one AS/400 to connect to another.
