| The Client Attachment Facility is what is used to allow a 390 qmgr to accept client connections. |

| The CAF is what allows a 390 box to accept a client connection. Without it, you can't client connect. |

in the UNIX, AIX, Windows etc, there will be a channel definition table for client connection. In other words, all clients will be used this channel definition table to connect to the server.
However, on 390, is there any channel definition table for client? What should the environment be setup for the clients to connect to the 390 platform? |

Yes you can create a channel table on the MF for use by clients on other servers to connect to the MF.
But you can create the channel table on any QM (MF or distributed). That channel table can be set up to go to any other QMs (MF or distributed).
You do not have to make the channel table on the QM the channel table points to.
Its easier to make the channel table on a distributed QM I would think.

Under 390 with CAF, is it the same as other distributed environment for all clients to use MQSERVER or the channel definition table to connect to the 390?
Is there any manuals about CAF on MQ? |

Yes, the clients on the distributed machines with MQ client can use the channel tables, or the MQSERVER variable, or the MQCONNX call to determine which Queue Manager it goes to, whether that QM is on the MF or not.
Click the link at the top of this page that says documentation and go the the library home page. Take a look at the MQClients Manual.
Or the z/OS guides may also have some info specific to the CAF.
