Starting and stopping the CICS DA server

When all the configuration steps are complete, you can then start the CICS® DA server. This task also explains how to stop the CICS DA server.

Before you begin

You must ensure that all the configuration steps are complete before starting the CICS DA server.

Procedure

Run the JCL procedure CPHOESVR to start the CICS DA server. The procedure is a member in the SCPHINST library in the data set where CICS DA is installed during the SMP/E installation.

Results

The CICS DA server starts. You can now download and install the CICS DA plug-in into the CICS Explorer®. If the server fails to start, review the error message, correct the problem, and try the operation again.

What to do next

To shut down the CICS DA server you can issue the MODIFY or STOP system commands from TSO, or from the z/OS Command view in the CICS DA client. For example:
F jobname,appl=SHUTDOWN

P jobname
where jobname is the job name of the CICS DA server. You must have the correct level of authorization in RACF, or external security manager, to issue the commands.
