Interesting. We have MacKinney Batch to CICS to do this. But your way seems just fine as long as you don't care for a response of some sort (bad transID or whatever). Of course I get the following errors when I try: IEF196I <MVS.MODIFY.STC.CICSDEV1.CICSDEV1> +DFHAC2015 CICSDEV1 Console INTERNAL has not been defined to CICS. Input is ignored.
But I think that's just a matter of some security and configuration changes. (This LPAR is in WARN mode, which is why it performed the modify anyway.) -- Frank Swarbrick Applications Architect - Mainframe Applications Development FirstBank Data Corporation Lakewood, CO USA P: 303-235-1403 F: 303-235-2075 On 8/7/2009 at 3:40 AM, in message <[email protected]>, Jim McAlpine <[email protected]> wrote: > On Fri, Aug 7, 2009 at 7:58 AM, Gangar, Parin (MLITS) > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> How to trigger a cics transaction from batch job? >> >> I googled this, and I got >> http://cicswiki.org/cicswiki1/index.php?title=How_do_I_interact_with_a_t >> ransaction_from_a_batch_program%3F where various options are mentioned, >> which unfortunately my CICS installation does not allow. >> >> Anyone got any ideas where I can submit CECI START TRAN(xxxx) from batch >> ? >> >> Thanks, >> Parin >> >> >> Try this - > > //IEFPROC EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT > //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* > //SYSUT1 DD DDNAME=IEFRDER > //SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR),DCB=BLKSIZE=80 > //SYSIN DD DUMMY > //IEFRDER DD DATA,DLM=@@ > /*$VS,'F cicsname,xxxx' > @@ > Jim McAlpine > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, > send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO > Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html >>> The information contained in this electronic communication and any document attached hereto or transmitted herewith is confidential and intended for the exclusive use of the individual or entity named above.
