Activate the Application Major Node

The application major node that defines the ACB for the server must be active before XCOMXFER can execute.

Member APPLXCOM of CAI.CBXGSAMP contains VTAM definitions.

To activate the application major node

Copy the sample to one of the libraries in VTAM's VTAMLST concatenation. Issue the following VTAM command at the z/OS console:

V NET,ACT,ID=APPLXCOM

Note: The major node activation is required, even when using only TCP/IP transfers, for communication with the CICS user interface.
