Working with system connections
These example tasks illustrate how you can configure and change
your system connections.
- Configuring a system connection
Before you can view any information, you must establish a connection
between IBM CICS Explorer and
your CICS systems by providing details about the system connection, its location,
and authentication requirements. By default, IBM CICS Explorer attempts
to connect using the SSL protocol. If the SSL connection is not successful,
the connection will be re-attempted using standard IP protocol.
- Connecting to a system
You must first connect to your CICS systems before you can display
their resources.
- Deleting a system connection
If you no longer need one of your system connections, you can delete
it permanently from IBM CICS Explorer.
- Restoring system connection default settings.
If your system connections were pre configured when you installed IBM CICS Explorer and you
want to back out all changes that you have subsequently made, you can restore
the default settings.
- Updating a system connection
If any of the system connection settings change, you must update
the connection details in IBM CICS Explorer to
reflect the changes.
