After a hectic schedule, just relaxing, having coffee, and listening to my Mind Machine. I decided to write some tough CICS questions. I am giving these in 3 sets, so you can much benefit from them.
Q1) What are the primary tables must define in CICS?
The following tables you need to define for a CICS program to execute. Program – PPT Transaction – PCT FILE(VSAM) – FCT RCT – DB2, CICS-DB2 guide with examples Terminal – TCT TDQ – DCT TSQ – TST Userid – SNT System entry – SIT Work-station characteristics – WSU
Q2) How can achieve DFOC in CICS?
DFOC (dynamic file open/close) can be achieved by DFOC -Link DFOC-SET DFOC- By batch job. Through Link this can achieved by Master Terminal program(DFHEMTP)
Q3) What are the functions of CEMT?
“CEMT” is a powerful transaction.
Major functions are Inquire, Set, and Perform
Q4) What is the use of CEDF?
We can use “CEDF” for execution diagnostic messages: Type==> CEDF aaaa here, aaaa-terminal id (such as, Test region), press then, give application transaction-id. Also, this can be achieved by ‘Xpediter” setup
Q5) What is the best use of Handle Abend?
“Handle Abend” can be used to intercept abnormal termination of the program. But this is different from “Handle condition”. It intercepts only abnormal conditions.
