You can replace an existing transient data queue definition if
the following rules are satisfied:
- CICS® initialization
is complete
- The queue TYPE is the same as the existing definition
- The intrapartition queue is disabled
- The extrapartition queue is disabled and closed
Existing definitions cannot be replaced during a cold
start of CICS. If you are using multiple groups, take great care to ensure
that duplicate names do not exist. Duplicate names cause error messages to
be issued. The duplicate definition is not used to replace the existing one.
You
can use the following transactions and commands to inquire about, set, and
discard transient data definitions after they have been installed:
- CEMT INQUIRE TDQUEUE (or EXEC CICS INQUIRE TDQUEUE)
- CEMT SET TDQUEUE (or EXEC CICS SET TDQUEUE)
- CEMT DISCARD TDQUEUE (or EXEC CICS DISCARD TDQUEUE)
- The CECI transaction
