Hi Terry,

Thanks, am getting a bit knotted with all the incoming info helping me, if I may ..
------
I use batch DFHCSDUP just for DEFINE'ing all my pgms, maps, files and transid's (avg 20 each time) because is part of an automated process (RDO is a non-starter). The entries seem to 'stick' from bounce to bounce .. so am guessing that DFHCSDUP is OK in this context but not for INSTALLing groups/lists what have you. I'd like to believe this because DFHCSDUP is fundamental to my little system e.g:
//DFHCSDUP EXEC PGM=DFHCSDUP,REGION=1M,
//             PARM='CSD(READWRITE),PAGESIZE(60),NOCOMPAT'
//STEPLIB  DD DSN=DFH420.CICS.SDFHLOAD,DISP=SHR
//DFHCSD   DD DSN=DFH420.DFHCSD,DISP=SHR
//OUTDD    DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
DELETE PROGRAM(QKVSP01) GROUP(GROUP1)
DEFINE PROGRAM(QKVSP01) GROUP(GROUP1)
                        TRANSID(QKVA)
                        LANGUAGE(COBOL)
                        DESCRIPTION(Main_menu_pgm)
.. plus several more DEFINE's
------
About warm etc starts: being a Dallas 'guest' I am skillwise limited to do what they say i.e..
/s cicsts42,start=initial
/f cicsts42,cemt p shut imm
.. that's my limit.
------
.. bell just rang, email from Patrick .. will now do a search for APPLID=, I found his third sentence DEVASTATING for me, sounds like I'd have to INSTALL my GROUP1 and INITLIST after each start=initial .. sounds like 'not the way to go'.
------
Where should I look for 'the SYSIN DD statement in the CICS step of the start-up JCL' .. think am asking where is the SIT table/file? Search path I'm using is:
//NEWDD    DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.CPSM.CUSTOM.INSTALL,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.CUSTOM.INSTALL,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.DOCLIB,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.INSTALL,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.MIS.SERVICE,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.PGMDIR,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.README,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.RIMLIB,DISP=SHR
//         DD DSN=DFH420.SVSC.SAMPLES,DISP=SHR
.. is right?
------
.. the search for APPLID= and SYSIN did point to what might be significant being ..
BROWSE    DFH420.SVSC.CUSTOM.INSTALL(CEECCSD) - 01.0 Line 0

.. am I searching in the right place? am I getting closer? is this where I might add in:
ADD GROUP(GROUP1) LIST(XYZLIST)
and did I ever need to create an INITLIST which is what I did?

I thank all for your patience, rest assured you won't hear from me after I see my QKVA transid bring up my menu screen!!! .. until next time:-)

HI Graham,

Both Lizette and Wayne have correctly indicated that doing a CEDA INSTALL as
prior to issuing that command the transaction definition is defined within
the CSD but not available to CICS for use.

Additionally it may be worth knowing that INSTALL is not possible via
DFHCSDUP.

If CICS is started with a WARM or EMERGENCY start the CSD is not used to
refresh the resource definitions within CICS, it uses the CICS Global
Catalogue instead. If an INITIAL or COLD start is performed it will use the
CSD. Doing the INSTALL via CEDA is fine for WARM/EMERGENCY situations but to
cater for INITIAL/COLD if a new LIST has been created it is worth checking
the GRPLIST parameter in the SIT to ensure that the list is defined to CICS
start-up.

The SIT can be located by checking the member name in the data set defined
via  .
