The following CA Intertest transactions need to be in the TRANID bypass list on the CA Top Secret facility associated with the CICS region where CA Intertest is running: IPLX, ISER, VTAT, LIST, and VIRC. 

  

Additional Information:  

 

Use the following command to check your bypass list:

where 'cicsfac' is the facility associated with the CICS region.

 

Use the following commands to add the transactions to your bypass list:

 

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPADD(TRANID=IPLX))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPADD(TRANID=ISER))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPADD(TRANID=VTAT))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPADD(TRANID=LIST))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPADD(TRANID=VIRC))

 

If you wish to remove any from your bypass list, you will use the following commands:

 

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPREM(TRANID=IPLX))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPREM(TRANID=ISER))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPREM(TRANID=VTAT))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPREM(TRANID=LIST))

TSS MODI FAC(cicsfac=BYPREM(TRANID=VIRC))
