The structure of the Version objects

This section describes the CIU_VERSION table. This table is used by the CICS IA plug-in for CICS® Explorer to synchronize the CICS IA plug-in version being used and the base IA database objects.

CIU_VERSION table

IBM Support will request the information in the CIU_VERSION table if you have any CICS IA plug-in issues. For more information see CICS IA Explorer Level in the Solving problems section.

The CIU_VERSION table stores APAR and release information for the CICS IA plug-in. When maintenance is applied to the base IA DB2® tables, or the CICS IA plug-in, reload the table using the sample job CIUVERLD.
