Once you have started Enterprise Server Administration, you need to configure an enterprise server to enable it to run CICS
applications and to specify the location of the files it will need.
To configure an enterprise server for use with the installation verification procedure:
- In the table of servers on the Home page of Enterprise Server Administration, click
Edit to the left of the row for the server that you want to edit.
- On the
Server > Properties > General tab in the
Configuration Information, type an environment specification for locating the CICS files into. For example, if your project files are all in subdirectories
under
C:\tutorials\CICS
, type:
[ES-Environment]
CICSPROJ=C:\tutorials\cics
This sets a value for
$CICSPROJ.
- Click
Properties > MSS.
- Specify DEMOSIT in
System Initialization Table.
- Specify the location of the transaction programs in
Transaction Path, for example,
$CICSPROJ\mto-bms\debug.
- Specify the location of the data files in
VSAM File Path, for example,
$CICSPROJ\mto-bms.
- Specify the location of the BMS maps in
Map Path, for example,
$CICSPROJ\mto-bms.
- Click
OK.
At this point you have enabled CICS support for this enterprise server and specified the location of the relevant files. The
directory names used in the examples above are for illustration only - you should change them to use the directories in which
the installation verification procedure files are installed on your system.
- Click the
Listeners tab.
- Click Add in the Listeners column for Communications process 1.
- Specify the following information to enable you to use a TN3270 emulator:
