SNA NRJE Network Remote Job Entry
This paragraph describes System Network Architecture
Network Remote Job Entry (SNA NRJE) for both the
MPE V (SNA NRJE/V) and MPE/iX (SNA NRJE/iX)
operating systems. The term SNA NRJE is used to refer
to both SNA NRJE/V and SNA NRJE/iX. The terms SNA
NRJE/V and SNA NRJE/iX are used when a distinction is
necessary.
SNA NRJE/V on the HP 3000 Series 37-70 or SNA
NRJE/iX on the HP 3000 Series 900 provides enhanced
batch data communications between the HP 3000 and an
IBM Systems/370-compatible mainframe in a System
Network Architecture (SNA) environment. SNA NRJE
emulates the major features of an IBM 8100 DPPX/RJE
workstation using an SNA Physical Unit Type 2 (PU 2),
Logical Unit Type 1 (LU 1) device.

Features
• SNA NRJE is able is able to
communicate with JES2, JES3, and
VSE/POWER host job entry subsystems.
• Automatically route job output based
on destinations selected by the user at
the time of job submittal - "Job
Management"
• Automatically route output based on
user-selected IBM host forms - "Output
Management"
• Process batch jobs originated by a user
on an IBM Mainframe - "Reverse NRJE"
• Provide Native Languages Support - for
data only. NLS 16-bit character
mapping; interactive and programmatic
access; and data integrity are not
supported for languages such as
Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese,
and Traditional Chinese.
• Host output can be sent to any
supported output device on an HP
3000 such as disk files, tape files,
printers, or user-written programs.
• Multiple HP 3000 users can
concurrently access the host for batch
processing.
• Jobs are submitted into the
transmission queue independent of the
line status.
• Users can submit jobs and receive
output without operator intervention.
• Other HP 3000 applications run
concurrently with SNA NRJE.
• SNA NRJE can share an SNA link with
other HP SNA service products.
• Customizable error and help message
facilities are provided.
• Host console commands can be sent
and host console data can be received.
• Data compression and character code
translation are configurable.
Disks
• SNA NRJE and SNA Link support
communications at up to 56 KB/s on
Printers
MPE V and 16 MB/s on MPE/iX.
• SNA NRJE can take advantage of
Laser Printers
SNA/SDLC Link's Auto-dial capability.
