CICS Databases

CICS enables online access to databases. The commonly used databases are ADABAS, DB2, and Information Management System (IMS) DL/I. CICSCMD commands are provided to enable you to inquire about these databases.

You can define resource definitions in the knowledge base to manage these databases.

Templates are provided to help you define CICS DL/I database resources in the knowledge base. The templates contain messages that reflect the actual state of the resource. As supplied, the templates provide monitoring functions only.
