Task 3—Updating the program list table program initialization

The following procedure explains how to update the PLTPI.

If you did not need to create the DFHPLTxx program described in Task 1—Updating System Initialization Parameters, this task is required.

If you created the DFHPLTxx program in Task 1, the SOPCINIT program was added at that time.

1. To run SOPCINIT during CICS initialization, update the PLTPI
   
   When SOPCINIT runs, a write-to-operator (WTO) message is sent to the operator’s console (MVS only) and to the programmer’s log.

2. To add the SOPCINIT program to an existing PLTPI, make the following entry to cause the program to be executed during CICS initialization:

   DFHPLT TYPE=ENTRY,PROGRAM=SOPCINIT
