3.1
Creating and Configuring a VSAM eWay
All eWays contain a unique set of default configuration parameters. After the eWays are
established and a VSAM External System is created in the Project’s Environment, the
eWay parameters are modified for your specific system. The VSAM eWay configuration
parameters are modified from two locations:
Connectivity Map
: These parameters most commonly apply to a specific
component eWay, and may vary from other eWays (of the same type) in the Project.
Environment Explorer
: These parameters are commonly global, applying to all
eWays (of the same type) in the Project. The saved properties are shared by all
eWays in the VSAM External System window.
Collaboration or Business Process
: VSAM eWay properties may also be set from
your Collaboration or Business Process, in which case the settings will override the
corresponding properties in the eWay’s Connectivity Map configuration. Any
properties that are not overridden retain their configured default settings.

Configuring the eWay Connectivity Map Properties
When you connect an External Application to a Collaboration, Enterprise Designer
automatically assigns the appropriate eWay to the link. Each eWay is supplied with a
list of eWay connections (transaction support levels) from which to choose.
Transaction support levels provided by the VSAM eWay include:
