Editing CICS Tables and Control Blocks (Code Debug CICS PL/I)


This section discusses how to use the XPSP transaction to perform the following functions:

  • Access and modify CICS table entries, storage, and control blocks defined to a CICS region.
  • Use Code Debug CICS to modify CICS tables online without taking the region down.

Important

The demonstrations in this section should be performed in Code Debug’s standard operating mode — not one of the three restricted modes. For more information, see the Code Debug CICS Reference Manual.

Editing a CICS Table Entry
