Resource attribute update exit points occur before CICS® Configuration Manager updates the attributes
of a resource definition, including creating or deleting a resource
definition, after any security checks
. These
exit points occur while processing the following API commands: Alter,
Copy, Create, Delete, Migrate, Rename, and Update.
You can write programs for these exit points to perform the following tasks:
You can use these exit points to enforce site standards upon resource definition names and attributes. For example, when a user edits and then attempts to save a resource definition, your exit program can check the resource definition name and attributes, and then disallow the update, or allow the update as requested, or allow the update with some attribute values updated to match your site standards.
