Developing for recovery

When you are planning aspects of recovery, you must consider your applications, system definitions, internal documentation, and test plans.

Application design considerations
Think about recoverability as early as possible during the application design stages. This topic covers a number of aspects of design planning to consider.
System definitions for recovery-related functions
You are recommended to use a number of system definitions to ensure that your CICS regions provide the required recovery and restart support for your CICS applications.
Documentation and test plans
During internal design, consider how to document and test the defined recovery and restart programs, exits, and procedures.
Programming for recovery
When you are designing your application programs, you can include recovery facilities that are provided by CICS; for example, you can use global user exits for backout recovery.
