Making terminal definitions shippable
To migrate your TCT definitions to one or more CSD files:
- Suppress the assembly of remote definitions in all the TCTs to be migrated,
by removing (or commenting-out) the TCT source for:
- TYPE=REMOTE entries
- TYPE=REGION and subsequent TYPE=TERMINAL entries
- Assemble the TCT for the terminal-owning system, suppressing any macros
for remote definitions that you may have if there is more than one terminal-owning
system.
- Assemble the TCT for the application-owning system, if it contains any
definitions for local terminals. Again, suppress any macros for remote definitions
if you need to assemble this TCT.
- Use DFHCSDUP to migrate the TCT. The command looks like this:
MIGRATE TABLE(DFHTCTLA) TYPESGROUP(tgrpname)
- Initialize the CICS terminal-owning system, installing at least one TERMINAL
definition and other resource definitions necessary for using RDO.
- Use the ALTER command to change the SHIPPABLE attribute to YES, on all
the TYPETERM definitions that might be used for shipping. You can probably
use a generic name to do this in one command. For example:
CEDA ALTER TYPETERM(*) GROUP(grpname) SHIPPABLE(YES)
- Include the groups containing the definitions in the GRPLIST for the terminal-owning
system.
