The timer domain provides interval timing and alarm clock services for CICS® domains. These are processes that cause an action to occur at some predetermined future time. This service (called "notifying") can be performed after a specific interval, at periodic intervals, at a specified time of day, or at a specific time of day every day.
The timer domain also provides date and time provision and conversion functions. This includes the facility to synchronize the CICS local time with the operating clock when the system operator has adjusted the time zone.
