Extending and customizing the CICS Configuration Manager server with user exits
You can extend and customize CICSĀ® Configuration Manager server processing by attaching your own CICS programs to user exit points.
CICS Configuration
Manager has
the following user exit points:
Type | Occurs |
---|---|
Security call | Before and after each SAF security call |
Resource attribute update | Before updating the attributes of a resource definition |
Change package pre- and post-processing | Before and after processing a change package |
Operations qualification | Before an install, a discard, or a newcopy of a resource |
You can write user exit programs in any language supported by CICS.
Security call exit points invoke the program CCVXSECI. Other exit points can invoke
the programs of your choice, which you can specify using CICS Configuration
Manager ISPF dialog option 1.7 Exit Points. For details, see Invoking user exit programs.
