Use the Configuration Tool to create a CICS® Transaction Gateway configuration file.
To start the Configuration Tool, enter the ctgcfg command at a command prompt. Alternatively, on Windows, click the shortcut on the Start menu. To use the Configuration Tool remotely on UNIX and Linux, export the display using the commands described in Using X Window System for GUI.
Configuration settings are stored by default in the ctg.ini file, in the <install_path>/bin directory on UNIX and Linux, and in the <product_data_path> directory on Windows. You can specify a different location and optionally change the name of the configuration file by setting the CICSCLI environment variable. For more information, see Specifying the configuration file. If this variable is set, the Configuration Tool loads the file referenced by CICSCLI, when it starts, otherwise it attempts to load ctg.ini from the default location. If the Configuration Tool fails to find a configuration file, it creates a new one. This file must be edited and saved before use.
The Configuration Tool allows parameter values to be entered in mixed-case and also writes the values as mixed-case to the configuration file. Some values are changed to uppercase at run time.
