Configuring CICS connection autoinstall

Autoinstall of connections is particularly useful when dealing with many similar connections or when you are unsure of the LU names (netnames) to be used.

To configure autoinstall of connection definitions:
  1. Update the default autoinstall program from DFHZATDX to DFHZATDY, by specifying the SIT parameter AIEXIT=DFHZATDY. Alternatively, write your own autoinstall user-replaceable module based on the samples provided.
  2. Configure model definitions. The supplied DFHZATDY autoinstall program uses the template CBPS. CBPS is supplied in DFHAI62 group; copy it to your own group and modify it accordingly. The parameters in the connection definition template are the same as for a static definition (see Defining the location of the remote system), except that the netname is not needed.
The parameters for the sessions definition are the same as those listed in Defining CICS sessions, except that the Connection parameter must refer to the CBPS connection definition. If you use the supplied connection autoinstall program (DFHZATDY), the connection name generated is based on the last four characters of the Netname. To change the connection name, create your own user-replaceable module from the sample provided in CICSTSxx.CICS.SDFHSAMP, where xx is the release of your CICS TS server. For example, xx is replaced by 22 for CICS TS 2.2 (CICSTS22.CICS.SDFHSAMP), 23 for CICS TS 2.3, 31 for CICS TS 3.1, and 32 for CICS TS 3.2.
