CICS® Transaction
Gateway is closely integrated with tools for application development
and system monitoring.
- IBM® Rational® Application Developer provides
a J2C toolkit. The toolkit enables you to generate code for use with
the CICS Transaction Gateway
ECI resource adapter that JEE applications use when accessing CICS programs.
- IBM CICS Explorer® provides access to CICS Transaction Gateway runtime
statistics along with information from other CICS environments. The information is displayed
in integrated views that can be customized.
- IBM Tivoli® OMEGAMON® automatically
detects and provides alerts if critical transactions are not completed.
- IBM CICS Performance Analyzer provides
statistics alert reporting. You can define conditions, in terms of CICS Transaction Gateway statistics
values, that interest you. You can then use those conditions to report
on statistics stored in SMF records.
- IBM Tivoli System Automation for z/OS® enables alerts to be generated
based on CICS Transaction Gateway
messages written to the z/OS console.
For more information see System automation messages.
- IBM Tivoli Composite Application
Manager can use CICS Transaction
Gateway request monitoring exits to obtain performance information,
and to analyze composite transactions occurring between a JEE application
server and CICS.
