You must completely remove any resource adapter supplied
with a previous version of the product before installing this version.
Local mode
If you are using
local mode, the server_region_libpath environment
variable must point to the bin directory of the CICS® Transaction Gateway installation.
To set this environment variable on WebSphere® Application Server:
- Navigate to .
- Under Server Infrastructure, click .
- If a LIBPATH entry exists, then edit the existing value, otherwise
click New to add a new entry with name LIBPATH
and set its value to the full path of the CICS Transaction Gateway <install
path>/bin directory, for example: /usr/lpp/cicstg/ctg910/bin.
Note: The WebSphere Application
server must be restarted for this change to take effect.
You
must also set the environment variables that are relevant to JCA in WebSphere Application Server.
For a local mode topology, the CICS Transaction
Gateway environment variables are specified using the WebSphere Administration Console:
- CTG_EXCI_INIT determines whether or not EXCI is loaded (default
is YES if undefined). If EXCI is required, you must also set the STEPLIB
environment variable. You can also set CTG_PIPE_REUSE and DFHJVPIPE:
- STEPLIB identifies the library containing the default EXCI options
and the EXCI load modules (mandatory).
- CTG_PIPE_REUSE determines how allocated EXCI pipes are reused
(optional but recommended).
- DFHJVPIPE defines the name of the pipe that CICS Transaction Gateway uses for EXCI calls
(optional but recommended).
For more information about what values to set for these
environment variables see Environment variables: local and remote mode.
For
more information about local mode see Configuring a local mode topology.
