Advantages
- You can use this method whether or not your systems share a CSD file,
so you can use it for transaction routing between different MVS images.
- This is the only method you can use if your terminals
are known by different names in different systems.
- You can use automatic transaction initiation (ATI) in the application-owning
system for a remote terminal without having to set up XALTENF and XICTENF
exits. (See the CICS® Customization Guide for programming information
on these exits.) This is especially useful for printers, because they must
be acquired before any ATI can be successful.
