Starting CICS IA customization

You can customize CICS® IA by creating new configurations or changing parameters of the configurations that already exist.

Start of changeCICS IA stores configuration information in two ISPF tables. These tables are CIUCICST and CIUDB2T. The first time you use the configuration utility, it creates these tables in a dataset that is called userid.ISPTABL. If you are migrating from CICS IA V3.1, it will take your existing configurations, which were stored in a dataset called userid.ISPTABL(userid), and create the two new tables in the same dataset. You can use the SETTINGs option to rename the dataset that holds the ISPF tables. This enables you to share your configurations with other users. End of change

To customize CICS IA, on the Welcome panel, CIUCNF00, press Enter to proceed to the CIUCNF04 panel, shown in Figure 1.
