CICS CEMT


This command issues a CICS CEMT request.

Command

Parameters

CICS CEMT | CEMTQ

Mttran

The maximum length of parameters (including blanks) and subcommands (such as SET and INQUIRE) is 72 characters.

By default, the output from the CEMT command is written to the BBI journal. If you give many CEMT commands consecutively or over time, they can produce a great deal of unwanted data in the BBI journal. To avoid this overload of information, you can use the CEMTQ command instead of CEMT. All parameters are specified exactly as with CEMT. The difference is that the output will not be written to the BBI journal.

Note

BBI-SS PAS to CICS communication must be active.

The following table describes the parameters.
