Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Improved deployment options with z/OS * * Connect in CICS. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Configuring z/OS Connect within CICS can be problematic, and can require duplicate configuration information for each product. The use of z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition is especially problematic, CICS URIMAP resources limit the ability to have multiple Services associated with the same URI within a single API.
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
FIX AVAILABLE BY PTF ONLY
Comments
CICS is changed so that URIMAP resources are no longer mandatory. In the absence of a URIMAP that identifies the target WEBSERVICE for a given URI, CICS allows z/OS Connect to resolve the name of the Service; CICS will attempt to use a WEBSERVICE with the same name as the z/OS Connect Service. CICS is also changed to automatically inject Service definitions into z/OS Connect for each WEBSERVICE that is installed. This avoids the need for editing server.xml for typical deployment scenarios. The CICS Knowledge Center will be updated with new information covering the use of z/OS Connect within CICS.
