In this section, you can read basic information about the CICS® IA components and their usage
so that you can start working right away. Some sections also contain
links to topics that cover specific subjects in more detail.
Running the configuration utility
The SMP/E installation process for CICS IA is described in the Program Directory
that is distributed with the product. The first task to complete after
the SMP/E install is to run the configuration ISPF utility.
Customizing DB2 Environment
Besides configuring the CICS Interdependency
Analyzer Collector environment itself, you also need to adjust its
working DB2® environment.
Collecting data with CICS IA
The Collector enables you to detect existing resource dependencies
in a running CICS region in
a real-time mode. With this tool, you can collect data on both types
of resource dependencies identified by CICS IA,
which are the direct dependencies and affinities.
Viewing Data with CICS IA Explorer
The CICS Explorer® with
the CICS Interdependency Analyzer
plug-in provides an Eclipse-based interface that allows you to analyze
your CICS IA data.
