It is only necessary to perform the complete configuration process
on one system, normally a test or development system. All of the mapping
and
initial testing should take place here. To run
CICS®
VT on other systems such as a quality
assurance or production system, a subset of configuration tasks are required.
You should also copy
the following application components to the additional system:
- The DDL for the
DB2®
objects. You might have to change the
DB2
table creator,
storage group and database names to suit your environment.
- The
CICS VT
drivers and DBRMs. The DBRMs must be bound into packages, and plans must be
bound for batch access.
- CICS VT
exits and DBRMs if appropriate. Bind the DBRMs into the same collection as
the DDM driver packages.
- The data migration jobs VIDLOAD and VIDUNLOAD, as well as the
DB2
load utility JCL and control cards. You might have to update the
DB2 SSID in some of these jobs.
- Other
DB2 utility
jobs, such as IMAGE COPY and RUNSTATS, as required.
You might also want to copy the JCL procedures that include the
modifications to enable
CICS VT.
