The DBCTLCON system
initialization parameter specifies whether you want CICS to start
the DBCTL connection automatically during initialization.
- DBCTLCON={NO|YES}
- Valid values are as follows:
- NO
- Do not automatically invoke DFHDBCON, the CICS DBCTL attach program,
during initialization.
- YES
- Invoke the CICS DBCTL attach program, DFHDBCON, automatically
during CICS initialization. The other information CICS needs for starting
the attachment, such as the DRA startup table suffix or the DBCTL
subsystem name, is taken from an INITPARM system initialization parameter.
Specifying DBCTLCON=YES means you don't need to
define the DBCTL attach program in the CICS post-initialization program
list table (PLT).
