This section describes how to start up CICS® regions. It assumes that any customization of CICS, the generation of any additional support required, and all the necessary CICS system definitions have already been carried out.
For an overview of CICS startup, see Starting up CICS.
For information about defining CICS systems, see the CICS System Definition Guide. For example, that book describes the system initialization parameters in detail, and describes how to create a CICS startup job stream.
