To export resource definitions from a system with CICS® Configuration Manager to a system without CICS Configuration Manager:
- On the exporting system (with CICS Configuration Manager):
- Define a CICS configuration that refers to an export file, specifying
the format of the export file as either DFHCSDUP (if the importing system
uses CSD files) or BATCHREP (if the importing system uses CICSPlex SM data
repositories).
- Use CICS Configuration Manager to copy or migrate the resource definitions to that CICS configuration.
- Transfer the export file to the importing system.
- On the importing system (without CICS Configuration Manager):
- Use DFHCSDUP or BATCHREP to import the resource definitions from the export
file.

- Without CICS Configuration Manager, you cannot extract resource definitions from a CICSPlex
SM data repository into a DFHCSDUP export file. With CICS Configuration Manager, you can extract
resource definitions from any combination of CSD files and CICSPlex SM data
repositories into either DFHCSDUP export files or BATCHREP export files.
