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.
