SUMMARY

SNA Server allows two different ways to create a Host Security Domain (HSD).
  • Using the Host Security Domain Wizard (recommended)
  • Using the "Insert" option
If the Insert option is used, two additional steps are required in order to employ Host Security Integration (HSI).
  1. Assign a Connection to the Host Security Domain that was recently created. Do this by right-clicking on the HSD name and then click Assign Connection.
  2. In User Manager for Domains, add the Domain User group to the HS Domain group (this would be the actual name given when creating the Host Security Domain Name).

MORE INFORMATION

If the Insert option was used but the two steps listed above were not done, you get various errors. For example, if a connection was not assigned to an HS Domain and you tried to save the configuration in Manager, the following error message is displayed:
The Host Security domain <HSD_Name> does not contain any connections. In its current configuration the Host Security domain is not usable. Do you wish to continue saving the config file? - Yes/No
If the Domain User group was not assigned to the HS Domain group and you tried to open up the Host Account Manager (UDConfig.exe), you receive this message:
There is no record of the selected user in the Host Account Cache. Please select a different account.
If you view the application log of the event viewer, the following error is reported from SNA Host Security:
Event 1298
