Mappings

The mappings in the DSS policy associate logical CICS® server names with DSS groups (groups of CICS servers).

The MAPPINGS subsection must contain at least one mapping.

<NONE> mapping

If you want a logical CICS server name to be applied to all requests that do not specify a CICS server name, you must use the value <NONE> as the logical CICS server name. If you specify both a <NONE> mapping and a default server in the configuration, the <NONE> mapping takes precedence.

In the example, requests that specify the logical CICS server name CICSX are mapped to the DSS group GROUP1. Requests that do not specify a server name are mapped to GROUP2 because of the <NONE> mapping. For more information about DSS groups, see Configuring a DSS group.

SECTION DSSPOLICY = POLICY1
   SUBSECTION MAPPINGS
      <NONE>=GROUP2
      CICSX=GROUP1
   ENDSUBSECTION
ENDSECTION

<ANY> mapping

If you want a logical CICS server name to be applied to all requests that do not match any of the mappings in the policy, you must specify an <ANY> mapping. If you configure an <ANY> mapping, it is not possible to send requests directly to a CICS server.

In the example, requests that specify the logical CICS server name CICSX or CICSY are mapped to the DSS group GROUP1. Requests that do not specify a server name are mapped to GROUP2 because of the <NONE> mapping. All other requests are sent to GROUP3.

SECTION DSSPOLICY = POLICY1
   SUBSECTION MAPPINGS
      <ANY>=GROUP3
      CICSX=GROUP1
      CICSY=GROUP1
      <NONE>=GROUP2
   ENDSUBSECTION
ENDSECTION
