Additional MainView AutoOPERATOR for CICS functions

This appendix identifies additional MainViewAutoOPERATOR functions that become available when you establish communications between the BBI-SS PAS and CICS.

After you have implemented BBI-SS PAS to CICS communication, you can:

  • use the Rule Processor to capture messages from the CICS transient data queue

  • issue the C and P line commands from the STATUS application’s TASK display

  • issue the CHAP (Change Task Priority) line command from the STATUS application’s TASK display

  • use the BROADCAST application from the CICS Operator Workstation in the BBI-TS

  • use the CICS dependent IMFEXEC CICS commands from an EXEC

The CICS dependent IMFEXEC CICS commands are as follows:
