Spool

Issue/Introduction

We are seeing contraditions in our Spool CICS menu vs  the menu in TSO. Although they are using the same task, same init parms. etc., we can't issue commands in the CICS menu like we can in TSO. 

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : Spool

Cause

CICS interface not implemented

Resolution

For Spool 14.0, the CICS interface is enabled by:

1) Include the following parameter in the ESFPARM:

SUBSAPI=CICS

2) Issue the command:

F caspoolstc,REINIT,MODULES,ON

where "caspoolstc" is the name of the Spool started task

3) Recycle the Spool started task
