Compatibility with previous versions of CICS DA
CICS® DA
V5 is not compatible with CICS DA V1. The host server component, the
client plug-in, and the model are all changed for CICS DA V5, and
do not work with CICS DA Version 1.
CICS DA version 5.3 introduces extra function in the client and the server. As a result of the new function, if you have a version 5.2 model, you must upgrade to the version 5.3 model if you want to retain policy data and tagging information that you entered manually.
