Platforms view
The Platforms view displays information about the CICS® platforms that are running in a CICSplex. A platform includes information about the location of the platform bundle, its definition, and the home directory for deploying applications.
To open the Platforms view, click
from the main menu. To search for a specific platform name, you can use the Filter tool in the toolbar of the view.
Right-click a platform name and click Open to open the Platform Definition view.

The Platform Definition view is read-only; you cannot change any of the properties. If you need to change the definition, right-click the platform name and click New from to create a new copy of the Platform definition. You can then modify the new platform definition.

The new platform definition must have a unique name and version number. For example, you can use the same name with a different version number. This provides a method of change control where the previous versions of a platform definition are not lost when changes are made.
