Space announcement This documentation space provides the same content as before, but the organization of the content has changed. The content is now organized based on logical branches instead of legacy book titles. We hope that the new structure will help you quickly find the content that you need.

FMIDs


The FMIDs for each CICS release are listed as follows:

  • RMXD170 - CICS TS 5.2 modules
  • SMXD170 - CICS TS 5.3 modules
  • TMXD170 - CICS TS 5.4 modules
  • UMXD170 - CICS TS 5.5 modules
  • VMXD170 - CICS TS 5.6 modules
  • WMXD170 - CICS TS 6.1 modules
  • XMXD170 - CICS TS 6.2 modules

If you install two or more CICS-dependent FMIDs for the same release of Code Debug CICS, there will be an instance of SMXDAUTH, SMXDAAFX1, SMXDPDSE, and SMXDSAMP for each FMID. Assuming the same level of maintenance on each FMID, all instances of these data sets are identical. The following example uses SMXDAUTH, but the concept applies equally to SMXDAAFX, SMXDPDSE, and SMXDSAMP.

Consider this example: You presently use the UMXD170 FMID and are installing the VMXD170 FMID for a newer CICS release. Your Code Debug  Service Provider has CPWR.UMXD170.SMXDAUTH as the STEPLIB. There is no technical requirement to immediately change the STEPLIB to specify CPWR.VMXD170.SMXDAUTH as the STEPLIB.

There may be an operational reason to transition to use of the VMXD170 instance of SMXDAUTH, at some convenient time. Once all CICS regions have been upgraded to the newer CICS release, you may want to archive or delete the UMXD170 data sets. Obviously, that archive or delete cannot be completed if the UMXD170 instance of SMXDAUTH is still in use.

Important

If you are installing Code Debug CICS with support for more than one release of CICS, which may include releases your site is planning to install in the future, BMC recommends installing them simultaneously.

Complete the following task to SMP/E-install Code Debug CICS.

Task 2.1 Follow the BMC Installation Guide

Warning

If two or more 

Code Debug CICS

 FMIDs are installed, each FMID must be installed into unique target and distribution zones. Target and distribution zones cannot be shared by two or more 

Code Debug CICS

 FMIDs.

  1. Follow the instructions in the BMC Compuware Installer Mainframe Products SMP/E Installation Guide to install Code Debug CICS.

  2. Once completed, follow the steps in this guide to configure and deploy Code Debug CICS.


1. SMXDAAFX has been deprecated and, beginning with FMID UMXD170, is no longer created.
