Referencing your customized EXCI options

The EXCI options environment variable must point to the library that contains the table of EXCI customization options. This ensures that these options are used at startup.

Using STDENV

The STEPLIB environment variable should be updated to reference the dataset containing your customized DFHXCOPT table ahead of the CICS® EXCI load library. For more information, see Environment variables: local and remote mode

Using ctgenvvars

If you are using the ctgenvvar script you should update the EXCI_OPTIONS environment variable to specify the library that contains the customized options table. Edit the ctgenvvar script. Find the line:
EXCI_OPTIONS="your.user.loadlib"
and change it to specify the appropriate library.

You must update the name of the library specified in the EXCI_LOADLIB environment variable to that of the latest version of CICS being used. This library contains:
  • The default EXCI options
  • The EXCI load modules
Update EXCI_LOADLIB by editing the ctgenvvar script. The sample ctgenvvar script contains the following definition:
# Set EXCI_LOADLIB to the CICS SDFHEXCI library.
EXCI_LOADLIB="<EXCI_LOADLIB>"
Change it to specify the appropriate library and high-level qualifier. The EXCI_OPTIONS and EXCI_LOADLIB variables are used in the definition of the STEPLIB environment variable.

For more information about the EXCI options and how to customize them, see the CICS Transaction Server for z/OS® CICS External Interfaces Guide.
