This topic outlines how you can test the CICS-DB2 environment. It uses Phase 5 of the DB2 installation verification procedure. It is intended as an overview of what is involved, and what you would expect to see.
To use the DB2 installation verification procedure, and Phase 5 in particular, see the IBM DATABASE 2 Administration Guide. That publication gives the latest information about the procedure, and describes the steps involved in much more detail.
To prepare the sample applications to be used in a CICS-DB2 environment, run the jobs DSNTEJ5C and DSNTEJ5P supplied with DB2.
Job DSNTEJ5C installs the sample application transactions in COBOL and prepares the organization application. Job DSNTEJ5P installs the transactions in PL/I and prepares the organization, project, and phone applications.
Both these jobs perform the following functions:
After logging on to CICS, you can start an organization or project application by entering one of the following CICS transaction codes:
If you enter one of these transaction codes, the panels shown in Figure 47 or Figure 48 are displayed.
ACTION SELECTION MAJOR SYSTEM ...: O ORGANIZATION ACTION .........: OBJECT .........: SEARCH CRITERIA.: DATA ...........: SELECT AN ACTION FROM FOLLOWING LIST A ADD (INSERT) D DISPLAY (SHOW) E ERASE (REMOVE) U UPDATE (CHANGE)
ACTION SELECTION MAJOR SYSTEM ...: P PROJECTS ACTION .........: OBJECT .........: SEARCH CRITERIA.: DATA ...........: SELECT AN ACTION FROM FOLLOWING LIST A ADD (INSERT) D DISPLAY (SHOW) E ERASE (REMOVE) U UPDATE (CHANGE)
For detailed information about running the organization and project applications, see the IBM DATABASE 2 Administration Guide.
To start the phone application, clear the screen and type in the transaction code D8PT. You can change the transaction codes when you install DB2. Check with your system administrator to find out if they have been changed from those shown.
