Host Alias (optional)
The alias for a host is a customer supplied nickname for that host. This is
an optional field and may be left blank if an alias is not desired.
Host Name
This field lists the names of all hosts that are configured with the library
system via LAN.
For TCP/IP hosts, the Host Name is the Hostname defined in the TCP/IP
network. In Figure 121, rs6000.tucson.com is a TCP/IP Hostname.
For APPC and APPC/VTAM hosts, the Host Name is a combination of the
Host Network ID and the Host Location Name. For example, if the Host
Network ID is USIBMSU, and the Host Location Name is S10A4045, then
the Host Name is USIBMSU.S10A4045.
