Use the Configuration Tool to configure the CICS® Universal Client.
To use the Configuration Tool remotely, export the display using the commands described in Using X-Window System from a remote system. To start the Configuration Tool, enter the ctgcfg command.
Configuration details are stored by default in the ctg.ini file in the <install_path>⁄bin subdirectory. You are recommended to use the Configuration Tool to update this file.
You can specify a different location for the configuration file, and optionally change its name, by setting the CICSCLI environment variable. If this variable is set, at startup the Configuration Tool loads the file referenced by CICSCLI. If the Configuration Tool fails to find the configuration file, it creates a file that includes a partial definition for a new server named A_Server. You must edit and save this file before use. The tool does not automatically create a directory if the directory referenced by CICSCLI does not exist.
The configuration tool allows parameter values to be entered in mixed case and also writes the values as mixed case to the configuration file, ctg.ini. For both the Gateway daemon and the Client daemon, some values are folded to upper case at runtime.
