Abstract
Apparatus and method for communicating between a virtual machine application of a transparent services access collection and an external resource outside the collection. A second virtual machine is provided within the collection, for servicing a request to the external resource. The second virtual machine converts a VM request to CONNECT from the first virtual machine to a VTAM allocate command. An interface is provided at the collection for mapping each VM verb to a VTAM verb, for transmission over the VTAM network. The interface is bi-directional whereby VTAM commands received by a collection are mapped and converted to a VM verb and associated protocol.
