How Autoinstall Works In CICS Without PPT Entry

In CICS with AUTO INSTALL option we no need to define each program/map to PPT entry. If Autoinstall is yes, CICS will dynamically install the definition for program/map when requested.

If AUTOINSTALL is active, whenever those programs/maps requested, the definitions will be installed by CICS dynamically.

The following scenarios AUTOINSTALL works:

  1. EXEC CICS LINK
  2. EXEC CICS XCTL
  3. EXEC CICS LOAD
  4. EXEC CICS SEND MAP
  5. EXEC CICS RECEIVE MAP

The installation parameter must be set as AICONS=YES, for auto installation.
