Step 19--Describe QMF to DB2 UDB for OS/390 in CICS

This step ensures that you complete all the prerequisite steps before you tailor QMF for CICS.

1. Ensure that you install the DB2 UDB for OS/390-to-CICS connection and the DB2 UDB for OS/390 attachment facility for CICS.

   QMF uses the CICS/DB2 attachment facility to access DB2 UDB for OS/390 data in the CICS environment. QMF-specific information for these products is described in the DB2 UDB for OS390 Administration Guide.

2. Verify that the plan ID and authorization IDs for a QMF transaction ID are in the resource control table (RCT).

   Users invoking a QMF transaction operate under the authorization of the associated RCT entry. (For a sample RCT, see member DSQ1ERCT in the QMF sample library QMF720.SDSQSAPE.)

   If your RCT includes RACF information, the authorization ID must be a valid RACF ID.

3. Regenerate your RCT as described in DB2 UDB for OS390 Administration Guide

   For a complete description of the resource control table, see the DB2 UDB for OS390 Administration Guide.

All QMF programs are bound during installation; it is unnecessary to separately bind for CICS.
