About this task
Restriction:
Known Limitations in
this release. In the Create Definition wizard there is a
Data
Repository field, that has content assist. If you press
the Ctrl and space bar keys together, when you are in the text box,
you see a list of repositories. In CICS CM,
Ctrl and space bar display repositories from only CICSPlex® SM, so it
does not display
information for CICS CM and
you cannot currently disable it. Do not change the value in the repository
after you open the dialog. However, you can change the value in the
resource group text box in the dialog.
To create a resource,
perform the following steps:
- Open the New wizard using one of the following methods:
- For this method you require a CICS SM
connection. Right-click a CICSplex name in the CICSPlex and Repositories view, click New,
and select the resource from the shortcut list, or select Other
> CICS SM Administration to display all resources. Click Next.
The New wizard for the selected resource opens.
- Open the resource definition view for the resource that you want
to create, right-click a resource definition in the view, and click New.
The New wizard for the selected resource opens.
- To use this method, you must first select a group in the Groups
view. Click Explorer > New Wizards. Select
the resource from the shortcut list, or select Other >
CICS SM Administration to display all resources. Click Next.
The New wizard for the selected resource opens.
- To use this method, you must first select a group in the Groups
view. Click the down arrow in the New wizard icon on the Explorer
toolbar and select the resource from the shortcut list, or select Other
> CICS SM Administration to display all resources. Click Next.
The New wizard for the selected resource opens.
- In the Groups view, right-click a group and New > Other to
open the New wizard dialog.
- Complete the remaining fields in the wizard. You must populate
the Resource Group field.
- If you want to save the new resource and immediately open it in
the editor, ensure that the Open editor check
box is selected.
- Click Finish.
The new resource is created with the default settings.
If the Open editor check box was selected,
the new resource is opened in the editor. If the check box was not
selected, you can edit the resource from the specific resource view
at a later time.
