Before you can complete this scenario, you must ensure
that the system requirements for CICS Transaction Server and CICS
Transaction Gateway are satisfied.
CICS® Transaction Server
on z/OS®:
- TCP/IP services must be active in the CICS server.
- To activate these services, set the TCPIP system initialization
parameter to YES.
- To check the status of these services, issue a CEMT INQ TCPIP
command and check that the status is open.
- The CICS server must have
access to a TCP/IP stack running on the same LPAR.
CICS Transaction Gateway:
- CICS Transaction Gateway
must be correctly installed.
- A working connection from CICS Transaction
Gateway to CICS is required.
This can be an IPIC, SNA, or TCP/IP connection. This scenario uses
a TCP/IP connection to CICS.
For more information see Configuring TCP/IP.
To test the scenario works successfully you can either use the
supplied samples, or your own applications. If you choose to use the
supplied samples, this scenario requires:
- The sample CICS TG server
program EC01 to be compiled, defined, and installed on CICS.
- The CICS Transaction Gateway
supplied Java™ sample EciB1 be
available on the Java client
machine.
