Configuring Rational® Integration Tester for recording CICS® IPIC traffic involves modifying the registration.xml file of the HTTP/TCP proxy, which is a component of IBM® Rational Integration Tester Platform Pack..
About this task
You must set up port-forwarding in the HTTP/TCP proxy’s registration.xml file to forward CICS IPIC traffic into the proxy, and then to the actual CICS region that has TCP/IP services that are activated.
Procedure
- Locate the HTTP/TCP proxy’s registration.xml in the httptcp folder in the IBM Rational Integration Tester Platform Pack installation directory, and then edit it
- Add a forward bind line in the registration.xml file as shown:
<forward bind="ritserver01.com:1234" destination="cicsserver.companyname.com:7425" type="ipic"/>
Note: When using SSL based IPIC communications, the type must be specified as ipics.
