SIGNON and SIGNOFF functions provide seamless integration with your existing CICS signon
process. Let’s explain this by way of a simple example using the Payroll System application. This has
two purposes. The first we just mentioned, the second is simply to unlock the fields on the 3270
display so the user can update only those fields they want to update. Session Agenda • Software

the client (without APPLID() EXCI EXEC interface option), the default_info service is called. This
service is advertised by the first DPL booted server. In this case, the data passed is the Customer
name and Betting shop location (Figure 7-11). The API consists of several parts (Figure 3-1). A
betting company is interested in bets placed over $10,000. If all DPL requests are done with
SYNCONRETURN and not under the RRMS control, no Resource Manager is required in the
Tuxedo Client. The initialization is done during the first EXCI request process and the Tuxedo
session is terminated at the end of the client process. The last piece of this code is the call to the
business logic (PAYBUS) to process the request. © 2024 SlideServe. All rights reserved Java

System 11. CICS 10 CICS itself acts as an operating system. Its job is to provide an environment for
online execution of application programs. CICS runs in one region or partition or address space.
CICS handles scheduling for programs running under it. CICS runs as a batch job and we can view
it in the spool by issuing the command PREFIX CICS*. There are five major services which are
provided by CICS. All these services together perform a task. CICSEnvironment Following are the
services which we will be discussing in detail step by step: System Services Data
Communication Services Data Handling Services Application Programming Services
Monitoring Services System Services CICS maintains control functions to manage the allocation
or de-allocation of resources within the system which are as follows: Task Control – Task control
provides task scheduling and multitasking features. It takes care of the status of all CICS tasks. Task
Control allocates the processor time among concurrent CICS tasks. This is called multitasking. CICS
tries to prioritize the response time to the most important task. Program Control – Program Control
manages loading and releasing of application programs. As soon as a task begins, it becomes
necessary to associate the task with the appropriate application program. Although many tasks may
need to use the same application program, CICS loads only one copy of the code into memory. Each
task threads its way through this code independently, so many users can all be running transactions
that are concurrently using the same physical copy of an application program. 2. CICS –
ENVIRONMENT Looking at the schematic diagram for a READ, shows that options FILE and
RIDFLD (which is the record key), are mandatory. Let’s have a look at what it does. To use EXCI
EXEC CICS Link command, the system.desc, transactions.desc, and program.desc configuration
files should be configured. If this is not set, then the update will take place. Monitoring • New

then you can see a familiar CICS return statement that nominates the successor transaction with the

for CICS to generate a business event without amending the application. The long list of “IF”
statements are simply checking to see if a field has been entered. This command is presented with
the key in which to start browsing from with the attribute GTEQ. This is accomplished by using and
testing flags sent by the caller. The EXCI interface uses the CICS application ID to address the
appropriate CICS region. The relationship between and is made via a specific DPL server service
named _info. Over the years, new API has been added, such as WEB, Asynchronous and SIGNAL

AS (data-value) • Specifies the name of the target container This is accomplished by using and
testing flags sent by the caller. You can also browse through all the files that are installed in your
system by using the browse options (START, NEXT, and END) on INQUIRE FILE commands.

CICS Statement That Failed • Step 4: Identify the COBOL source statement. • Locate the Cross-
Reference in the COBOL compile output • Locate the instruction at the offset identified in Step 3 in
the previous slide • Search backward in the instruction listing to find the COBOL verb and sequence
number that generated this offset • Locate the COBOL source statement associated with the
sequence number Copyright (c) 2009 The Evans Group, Inc. CICS service modules will interact with
VSAM to access the file and retrieve the record. Today the number of bytes of transmission is
considered so small that if is more efficient to send all fields, entered or not, than run through the
code required to test if the field was entered. Identifying the COBOL Statement That Failed 001600
