Common Configuration
# P0602477 Ver: 3.1.11 Page 235
If it is desired to not allocate a permanent slot with the GET request, the application
can issue the FREE request (thus guaranteeing timely slot release) and still have
dynamic slot allocation for each SEND and/or RECEIVE. To do this, use the
configuration option -m I discussed below.
vtcpd [-m [d] [{a|n}] [{l|L}] [{I|R}]]
Args: -m d Specifies that a reply from the host may come from any connection.
(Normally, a reply arrives from the host through the connection used
to send the corresponding request.) The use of this option can
increase the time used for internal message processing by VTCPD.
-m a Specifies asynchronous data delivery. If this option is included, and
VTCPD receives data from the host when a RECEIVE request is not
pending, the application receives the condition unexdata along with
the host data.
-m n Specifies asynchronous data delivery. If this option is included, and
VTCPD receives data from the host when a RECEIVE request is not
pending, the application receives the condition unexdata, but does
not automatically receive the host data. VTCPD will hold the data for
the application and deliver it upon the next RECEIVE request.
-m l Specifies that application replies to host-issued commands are to be
sent via the same link from which the commands were received. This
option is intended for environments where there is one host, and host
commands drive the application. This cannot be used in
environments where other host requests may arrive before the
application sends its reply to a host command. (See -m L below.)
-m L Specifies that applications determine the particular links used for each
host reply. This is intended for environments where multiple hosts
might send requests while an application is still processing a prior
request. This option causes VTCPD to prepend each message
routed to an application with 12 ASCII bytes in the format
XXX:YYY:ZZZ, which respectively denote the connection number,
slot number, and VTCPD port number. The application should also
prepend this header to all messages sent to VTCPD to guarantee that
their delivery is via link XXX.
-m I Specifies that when an application issues a GET request, the slot is
not reserved. Slots are allocated dynamically in this mode.
-m R Specifies that when an application issues a GET request, the slot is
reserved until it is freed. Slots are allocated on a round robin basis.
