CAIENF

CAIENF is an operating system interface component that provides a simple approach for CA products to obtain data from an MVS system by interfacing to any of the z/OS applications used by CA, thus exploiting technologies such as relational database architectures for the benefit of the entire product line.

Be aware of the following:

• CAIENF must be installed into an APF-authorized library.

  Linklist is recommended although it is not required.

• CAIENF runs as a started task within its own address space.

  A database must be allocated and initialized for CAIENF to use. For more information on space requirements, see the CA Common Services documentation.

Note: CA Dispatch does not use the CAIENF/CICS component
