MAKE THE SOURCE CODE OF ANY REQUIRED PLTS AVAILABLE TO CICS AT RUN TIME
CICS support for PLTs (Program List Tables) is changed in CICS TS 5.5.
CICS is no longer able to process assembled PLTs. After PLTs are coded,
it is not required to assemble the tables before use. Attempts to
assemble a PLT will cause the DFHPLT macro to issue return code 8.
As a result of this change, you must ensure that the source code of any
required PLTs are available to CICS at run time, and this includes any
copy members referenced by the source. To achieve this, you can either
place the source in a PARMLIB member that is part of the IPL PARLMIB
concatenation, or add a DD card that specifies the PLT source location
into the CICS JCL. The DD statement should be of the form:
//DFHTABLE DD DSN=source PDS name,DISP=SHR
Note that PLTs should still be coded using DFHPLT macro calls.
Ensure CICS has READ access to data sets in PARMLIB or DFHTABLE
concatenations.
