You can use CICS® DA to install the CICSPlex® SM definitions in an unmanaged CICS region, and add the region to an existing CICSplex and, optionally, one or more of the system groups in the CICSplex.
Ensure that the CICS region you want to add is in the model and that the region start policy has been recorded. See Capturing the region start policy topic for more information about recording the start policy.
CICSPlex SM definitions are added to the JCL that starts the region and a report is shown in the Console view. If the CICS region is run as a started task you must edit and update the JCL.
You must restart the region for the changes to take effect. In addition, if the region is a version 3.1 region you must upgrade the CSD. The console report shows details of the changes that were made to the JCL and provides the following information:
