You can perform actions against CICSPlex® SM or CICS® resources when you are connected to a CICS version 4 system, using the CICS Explorer™. The actions
you can perform are dependent on the resource selected.
Before you begin
Some actions can only be performed against multiple resources
if all resources are available. Some resources in your selection might
not be available, for example, if you have 1500 transaction definitions
and select them all, some of the resources might not be available,
in which case some of the actions in the context menu might be disabled.
You should select a smaller range of resources, for example, restrict
your selection to only those resources displayed in the view.
About this task
For full details of the actions, see the CICS Transaction Server for z/OS® documentation. This task describes how
to perform the actions using the CICS Explorer.
- Open or select the view containing the resource to perform
an action against. You can select multiple resources using the shift
or Ctrl keys.
- Right-click the resource selection to display the context
menu.
- Select the action to perform.
Results
The action is performed. A message is displayed in the workbench
status bar showing the status of the action.
Some actions may require
additional parameters. If this is the case, the context menu contains
a second level and the correct parameter must be selected on this
level.
For more information about actions for a specific resource,
see the CICS Transaction Server
for z/OS documentation.
