Products

Issue/Introduction

The client added the Intertest CICS program IN25PLT to the CICS PLTPI initialization table and assembled and link the CICS PLTPI. 

DFHPLT TYPE=ENTRY,PROGRAM=DFHDELIM 
DFHPLT TYPE=ENTRY,PROGRAM=IN25PLT   

But when CICS is started the Intertest CICS is not started . The first person that uses Intertest is informed that Intertest CICS is not start and they must start Intertest ?

Environment

Z/OS 

CICS

Cause

The client CICS SIT parameter PLTSD=  was pointing to the wrong version.

Resolution

After Adding the Intertest for CICS progrm IN25PLT to the CICS PLTPI you are required to assemble and link the PLTPI entry to bring in the new changes.

Then in your CICS SIT parameterrs (system initialization table)  you need to point to that version of the New PLTPI . In this case the client was pointing to a wrong version of the CICS PLTPI that did not contain the Intertest  CICS IN25PLT program. Once the client pointed to the correct PLTPI member Intertest CICS started at CICS initialization time.
