Update the ctg.ini configuration file

The ctg.ini file is an HFS file defined to the gateway by the CICSCLI= parameter in the environment file.

Update the ctg.ini file as follows:

  • Make sure that APPLID=xxxxxxx is specified in the PRODUCT section so that each CTG has an unique APPLID.

  • Add the name of the BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CICS Java exit by using the requestexits parameter in the GATEWAY section.

    The format is requestexits=MVCICSctgMonitor

  • Make sure the port number specified in UBBPARM member CMRBEXnn matches the port number specified in the following parameter:

    protocol@statsapi.parameters=port=24753;\     
                                  connecttimeout=2000;\
                                  bind=, \  
                                  maxconn=10  

The following figure provides an example of the GATEWAY section in a ctg.ini file for CTG version 9.n.
