Using the CSD and control tables together

In the following cases, you can mix resources that are defined in the CSD with resources that are defined in control tables:

  1. On an initial or cold start, you can mix file control resources that are defined in the CSD with those that were defined using DFHFCT macros. BDAM file definitions are loaded from the DFHFCT load module first, then the definitions for other types of files are loaded from the RDO groups specified in the GRPLIST system initialization parameter. When CICS® is running, you can use CEDA commands to add more file resource definitions.
  2. You can also mix terminal resource definitions for non-VTAM 1 terminals that are defined in a TCT with resource definitions for VTAM® terminals that are defined using RDO.

    However, avoid duplicate terminal IDs, because a TCT entry using the same terminal ID (TERMIDNT in the TCT) as a VTAM terminal in the CSD (TERMINAL name in the CSD), prevents CICS installing the VTAM definition.


1.
Non-VTAM terminals. TCT entries can be for local or remote BSAM sequential devices, local or remote logical device codes (LDCs), and remote TCAM DCB terminals.
