CICSPlex SM Business Application Services: A New Solution to CICS Resource Management

Redbooks logo

An IBM Redbooks publication

Abstract

This redbook is primarily intended for customers who are
currently managing multiple CICS systems that either run as
separate regions or use multiregion operation (MRO) or
intersystem communication (ISC) links. It will help you
implement CICSPlex System Manager Business Application Services (BAS),
a new, sophisticated way to manage your CICS resources.

The first five chapters of the book cover current resource management
practices, BAS terminology and concepts, the preparatory and
planning steps for BAS migration, and a cookbook
approach to BAS migration of the ITSO application set.

Subsequent chapters of the redbook deal with BAS resource
management as the application moves from the development to
production, configuration changes within the complex
of CICS regions, and fallback and housekeeping procedures.

The cookbook approach that we present can help you implement
new resource management practices for your business applications
in terms of their CICS resources and associated CICS systems.
These practices will significantly improve the manageability and
availability of your CICS environments.
