Software Reference Manual - NetEx

This is a list of up to eight alternate NETEX interface (subsystem) names to use. The list
must be enclosed in parentheses. Specifying “$$$$” for the subsystem name allows the default
to be selected by NETEX.
The name specified must be the same name as specified by the SUBSYS parameter in the
NetEx/IP initialization parameters (NTXINIT).
Alternate subsystem names are normally only used when running multiple instances of
NetEx/IP in the same LPAR.
Example:
BFXDEF#NTXID(NETZ)
BFXDEF#OUTDD
Default value: FILEOUT
Allowed values: any valid DD name, up to 8 characters in length
This parameter specifies the default DDNAME to be used if an output file is to be generated
from the data sent by another processor. The default is OUTDD=FILEOUT.
BFXDEF#RATE
Example:
Default value: 0
Allowed values: 0-100000
BFXDEF#OUTDD(FILE1)
This parameter specifies the transmission rate used when sending data, in kilobits per seconds.
A value of zero means that no rate control is to be used.
Example:
BFXDEF#RATE(10000)
BFXDEF#RMOD
Default value: STANDARD
Allowed values: any name, up to 8 characters in length
This parameter specifies the alphabetic name of the default record module to be used for
transferring the file. The default is RMOD=STANDARD, which is a symbolic name that
calls the RRM or SRM BFX default record modules through the BFXMDT table.
BFXDEF#RPARM
Example:
Default value:
Allowed values:
BFXDEF#RMOD(STD2)
‘’ (none)
any character string, up to 64 bytes in length
This parameter specifies a default string of character parameters to be passed to the invoked
record module. This string, if provided, may be up to 64 characters in length. By default, a
string of all blanks is passed to the RMODULE. The string may be enclosed in apostrophes.
The BFX default record module examines this string for the parameter TRANSL (abbreviated
TR) or TRSQ. If RPARM = TR or RPARM = TRANSL is specified, the string '(.' is translated
to a left bracket ([), and the string '.)' is translated to a right bracket (]). For example,
the string SAMPLE (.TRANSLATE.) would be translated to SAMPLE [TRANSLATE]. If
RPARM = TRSQ is specified, the left brace ({) is translated to a left bracket ([), and the right
brace (}) is translated to a right bracket (]). For example, the string SAMPLE
