"The configured value should exactly
match the DEFAULT INSTITUTION value in corresponding M system's
KERNEL SYSTEM PARAMETERS file (#8989.3). VistALink uses
primaryStation to confirm
that a connector is accessing the correct M system: if the two values
don't match, connections are rejected."
Please, someone can explain it for me! and why VistALink uses primaryStation to confirm a connector!! What is the problem if i want to connect EDIS to other division with different station number??? please explain!!
Okay, I'll give my ideas of what is meant (with a little research on my own).
There is a file #8989.3 named KERNEL SYSTEM PARAMETERS File.
There is a field #217 named DEFAULT INSTITUTION
This is the data dictionary field definition:
STANDARD DATA DICTIONARY #8989.3 -- KERNEL SYSTEM PARAMETERS FILE

(Required)
LAST EDITED: FEB 14, 1993
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the instutition to use as a default for
uses without one.
DESCRIPTION: This field is used to define a default
institution that will be assigned as the user's
institution (DUZ(2)) for any user that doesn't

This means you choose a particular institution on your system as
the value which will be used for institution if there isn't one defined already.

I read the following paragraph many times, but i didn't understand clearly,
"The configured value should exactly match the DEFAULT INSTITUTION value in corresponding M system's KERNEL SYSTEM PARAMETERS file (#8989.3). VistALink uses primaryStation to confirm that a connector is accessing the correct M system: if the two values don't match, connections are rejected."
Apparently there is a variable named primaryStation used somewhere in the VistAlink code to mean the connector's institution.

I don't have a good answer to how multi-divisional hospitals handle VistAlink and EDIS. I have a call in to a friend who works in a Multi-divisional hospital and will let you know what I find out.
