CICS resources

CICS resources, such as programs or temporary storage queues, are represented by instances of the appropriate Java class, identified by the values of various properties such as the name of the resource.

Resources must be defined to CICS using the CICS Explorer®, CEDA transaction, or CICSPlex® SM BAS. See What is resource definition? or Managing resources using Business Application Services (BAS) for information about defining CICS resources. It is possible to use implicit remote access by defining a resource locally to point to a remote resource.
