Abstract
This technology preview provides an enhanced user interface for various CICS® functions from within a Rational® Developer for System z™ workspace.
 
Download Description
This technology preview contains the following functions for a CICS application developer:
  • View CICS regions
  • View CICS resources and edit resource attributes (transactions, programs, files, etc.)
  • Define and Install CICS resources from Service Flow Projects or Single Service Projects
    • If the application developer does not have authority to perform these actions, he can add, edit, and remove CICS resources from a manifest file. This manifest file may then be exported for a CICS system programmer to take action.
This technology preview contains the following functions for a CICS system programmer:
  • Manifest Processing tool
    • List and import manifests from a CICS test environment repository
    • Update and install imported manifest resource definitions
    • Export manifest files back to a CICS test environment repository
  • System Programmer Administrative utility
    • Specify the CICSPlex® name
    • Supply default attribute values for CICS resources
    • Supply the CICS VSAM file logical to physical binding
The Application Deployment Manager technology preview Manifest Processing tool can be installed as a plug-in to CICS TS Explorer, installed on an Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP). With this configuration the CICS TS Explorer must be obtained by participating in the CICS TS Explorer managed beta program. Contact your IBM client representative for details on this beta program.
