The prerequisites for CICS® Transaction
Gateway, CICS Transaction Server
and WebSphere® Application
Server.
Here are the system requirements for CICS Transaction Server for z/OS®:
- The server must be CICS Transaction
Server V3.2 or later because IPIC is not available in earlier releases
of CICS.
- TCP/IP services must be active in the CICS server.
- To activate these services, set the TCP 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.
Here are the system requirements for CICS Transaction Gateway:
- CICS Transaction Gateway
must be installed.
- The SupportPac CA1T "High Availability exit samples" must
be available in the file system where the product was installed. For

IBM® CICS SupportPacs
Here are the system requirements for WebSphere Application Server:
- The Installation Verification Test (IVT) that you run to test
this scenario uses the ECI resource adapter, cicseci.rar. The resource
adapter must be downloaded onto the machine that runs the Web browser
you use for accessing the WebSphere Application
Server Integrated Solutions Console. The resource adapter will be
installed as part of this scenario.
To test the scenario works successfully run the IVT. For
more information see JCA resource adapter installation verification test (IVT).
