CICSPlex SM inquiry support for enterprise beans

Installed CorbaServer and DJAR instances may be managed by CICSPlex® SM through any of the three interfaces described in CICSPlex SM support for enterprise beans. All of the interactive operator services provided through the CICS® CEMT and CEOT transactions are functionally replicated in CICSPlex SM via the EUI, or through a web browser window. In either case, the installed CICS objects mapped by CICSPlex SM are: Additionally, any executable enterprise beans may be listed through these objects:

Both of these objects describe an enterprise bean structure: one is keyed through a CorbaServer name, and the other is keyed through a DJAR id. In both cases, the only enterprise bean content available for enquiry is the CorbaServer name, the DJAR name, and the enterprise bean name up to 240 characters in length. The Enterprise JavaBean specification states that enterprise bean names may be much longer, but the CICS implementation limits them to 240 bytes. An additional detail that CICSPlex SM inquiries provide over a standard CICS inquiry is a count of the available beans in any given DJAR or CorbaServer. When a new set of enterprise beans are deployed via a DJAR to a particular CorbaServer, the enterprise bean count can provide an instant confirmation as to the availability of the enterprise beans in question. The value is incremented according to the number of enterprise beans accepted through the DJAR installation process.

Other Enterprise Java™ associated CICS objects that are inquirable through CPSM are: All of these objects include attributes which have relevance to the management and execution of enterprise beans.
