MVS image editor

The MVS™ image editor shows the CICS® regions and other subsystems on the selected MVS image. The view shows only the MVS images that were included in the discovery operation.

The view name identifies the name of the object and the object type. In the following screen capture, the object shown is called MV27 and it is an MVS image. The CICS regions tab is selected showing the CICS regions, CMASes and Web User Interfaces on the MVS image. You can select a resource and click Open to show further information about the resource in the resource specific editor. Alternatively you can select a Web User Interface (WUI) resource and click Connect to connect to the CICSplex through the WUI port. When you connect the CICS SM perspective is opened and you can navigate through the CICSplex resources using the CICS Explorer™ views. You must have the correct authorization to connect to the CICSplex.
