Function keys

Function keys are used extensively throughout the CICSĀ® Configuration Manager dialog. Until you are familiar with CICS Configuration Manager, it is recommended that you display the function key labels.

To display function key labels, enter the ISPF command PFSHOW ON. To hide the labels, enter PFSHOW OFF.
