local presentation address
In OSI, the presentation address of an application entity at the local node. See also remote presentation address.
- In Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS, a processor in the same installation that communicates with the controlling Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS processor through shared DASD or XCF communication links.
- In a complex of processors under JES3, a processor that runs user jobs and that can assume global functions if the global processor fails.
A queue that belongs to the local queue manager. A local queue can contain a list of messages waiting to be processed. See also remote queue.
local queue manager
The queue manager to which the program is connected and that provides message queuing services to the program. See also remote queue manager.
local registration file (LRF)
A file that provides information about an agent or daemon, such as the name, the location of the executable code, the names of processes dependent on the agent or daemon, and details about the objects that an agent manages.
local request queue
A recoverable VSAM data set used to store pending BTS requests - for example, timers and unserviceable requests. It is used to ensure that, if CICS fails, no pending requests are lost.
A name declared in a block that has local scope and can only be used in that block. See also namespace scope.
- A predefined server that designates the current computer to run the Integration Flow Designer.
- In the DCE Distributed Time Service (DTS), a server that synchronizes with its peers and provides its clock value to other servers and clerks in the same network.
local service requester
In OSI, a service requester process on the local node. See also remote service requester.
local session identification (LSID)
In SNA, a field in a format identification 3 (FID3) field transmission header that indicates the type of session and the local address of the directly attached logical unit (LU) or physical unit (PU). See also origin address field.
- A file that shares a common pool of buffers and a common pool of strings; that is, control blocks supporting I/O operations, with other files. See also nonshared resource.
- In the Virtual Storage Access Method (VSAM), a resource in the local resource pool. See also global shared resource, shared resource, VSAM record-level sharing.
The unique relational database management system to which a user or an application program is directly connected. In the case of DB2 for z/OS, the connection is established by means of an attachment facility.
- In an IMS multisystem environment, a specific system in the multiple configuration.
- In a multisystem environment, the system on which an application program is executing. A local application can process data from databases located on either the same (local) system or another (remote) system. See also remote system.
- For interactive jobs, the system to which the display device is directly attached. For batch jobs, the system on which the job is being processed.
- In MVS, one or more segments associated with each virtual storage region that contain job-related system control blocks.
- An element of the CICS address space. It generally contains the control blocks for storage and contents supervision. See also high private area.
local topology database
A database in an APPN or LEN node containing an entry for each transmission group (TG) having at least one end node for an endpoint. In an end node, the database has one entry for each TG connecting to the node. In a network node, the database has an entry for each TG connecting the network node to an end node. Each entry describes the current characteristics of the TG that it represents. A network node has both a local and a network topology database while an end node has only a local topology database.
See local transaction program.
- In a multisystem environment, a transaction that is processed totally by the system in which it is defined. See also remote transaction.
- A recoverable unit of work managed by a resource manager and not coordinat
