SUMMARY

An FMH-5 Attach is used to carry a request for conversation to be established between two transaction programs. The following is an example Attach message in a PVI (Peer Verb Interface) trace. This is the first SNA message that flows to the remote system for conversation startup:

The following is the above FMH-5 Attach broken out using the IBM SNA Format Guide:

   43 - Length

   05 - FMH type

   02FF - Command code: ATTACH

   18 - Security indicators:  Password substitute present, PIP data present

   03 - Length of fixed length parameters (always 3)

   D00040 - Half duplex basic conversation, confirm sync level

   Transaction Program Name field:
      04 - Length
