CICS ONC RPC setup tasks

There are tasks associated with the CICS® ONC RPC data set, dump formatting, and a warning about migration.

Creating the CICS ONC RCP data set
JCL is provided in the DFHCOMDS job to create the CICS ONC RPC data set.
JCL entry for dump formatting
To switch dump formatting on for CICS ONC RPC (and for all running features), change the IPCS VERBEXIT control statement.
Migrating between CICS versions
CICS ONC RPC is part of the CICS Transaction Server base. None of the IBM-supplied programs for CICS ONC RPC can be moved to CICS Transaction Server from earlier releases.
Modifying z/OS Communications Server data sets
You can define the CICS Transaction Server region to z/OS Communications Server in the TCPIP.PROFILE. data set to reserve specific ports for ONC RPC applications.
