BMC Software, Inc., Confidential and Proprietary Information

All APPC/MVS parameters have a prefix of MVSAPPC. The
SBIDBS.SERVER1 parameter must reflect the type of server that is
implemented. For APPC/MVS, the type of server should be MVSAPPC. The
other parameters within the configuration file are not related to APPC/MVS,
so they do not need to be changed.
