The CICSĀ® Configuration
Manager server
requires a set of CICS resource
definitions. The following steps add these resource definitions to
a group named CCV510 in
the CSD file used by the CICS region
that you have chosen for the CICS Configuration
Manager server.
- Edit the resource definitions in the following member of the sample
library SCCVSAMP:
- CCVXCSDD
- Contains resource definitions for the CICS Configuration
Manager server, in a group
named CCV510.
- Replace the <DATAHLQ>.<SVRAPPL> placeholders
with the high-level qualifiers of the data sets that you want the CICS Configuration
Manager server to use.
- Optionally, if you have specific site standards for
managing LSR pools, change the LSRPOOLID attribute of file definitions
to refer to the local shared resource (LSR) pools of your choice.
The
file definitions in this sample member specify either LSRPOOLID(1)
or LSRPOOLID(8). However, the sample member explicitly defines only
LSRPOOL8; it does not explicitly define LSRPOOL1.
If you decide
to change the file definitions that specify LSRPOOLID(1), then either
specify the number of an LSR pool that is not explicitly defined,
or specify the number of an explicitly defined LSR pool that has at
least the buffer sizes, MAXKEYLENGTH attribute value, and STRING attribute
value of the LSRPOOLID8 definition in this sample member.
If
you decide to change the file definitions that specify LSRPOOLID(8),
then specify the number of an explicitly defined LSR pool that has
at least the buffer sizes, MAXKEYLENGTH attribute value, and STRING
attribute value of the LSRPOOLID8 definition in this sample member.
- If you have increased the value of the priority attribute
of the CICS-supplied CWBA transaction
from its default value of 1, then change the priority attributes of
the CCV-prefixed transaction resource definitions (CCVA, CCVB, etc.)
so that they are equal to or greater than the priority of CWBA. For
example, if the priority of CWBA is 3, the priority of the CCV* transactions
must not be 1 or 2; they must be 3 or greater.
If the priority of the CCV* transactions is
less than CWBA, the following symptoms can occur:
- CICS Configuration
Manager clients
experience an indefinite wait for a response from the CICS Configuration
Manager server.
- The CICS task for the CICS Configuration
Manager server region exhibits
high CPU usage.
- The transient data queue named CCVX is used only for deployment analysis.
The CICS Configuration
Manager server
uses this transient data queue to read the filter file specified by
the FILTERDATASET parameter of the DEPLOY command. Futhermore, this
static definition is effectively for documentation only: if you specify
FILTERDATASET, the DEPLOY command dynamically defines CCVX, replacing
any existing definition.
- Edit and submit the JCL in the following member of
the sample library SCCVSAMP:
- CCVXDUP
- Defines resource definitions for the CICS Configuration
Manager server from the
CCVXCSDD member (that you have just edited) in the appropriate CSD
file. Also adds the group CCV510 containing these
resource definitions to the startup list that you nominate.
Expect return code 4, because this job defines resource
definitions whose names begin with the letter C (typically used by CICS).
