Configuring Sessions
Personal Communications saves emulator configuration information to a workstation profile (.WS) information to a configuration file (.ACG). Depending on your Personal Communications configuration, you might have a workstation profile only or both a workstation profile and a configuration file. The workstation profile can be used later by other Personal Communications sessions, or to restart this session.
Workstation configuration information can also be stored in, and accessed from, a centralized directory. This is provided by lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) support; when this support is enabled.
You can have an icon created for each workstation profile. Then you can select the session icon to establish communication with the host system using the saved workstation profile.
- Configuring for iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™
- To connect to an iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™, specific configuration information in the workstation profile must correspond to the information specified at the iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ system. Refer to the iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ configuration examples in Emulator User's Reference for more information about creating display, line, and controller descriptions on the iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ system.
If you want to configure multiple links, refer to Administrator's Guide and Reference.
