You can use configurable services
to enable the CICSRequest node
in the broker runtime environment to connect with CICS® Transaction Server for z/OS®.
The following topics describe how to prepare the environment
to connect to CICS, and
how to change the connection details without the need to redeploy
your message flow.
Changing connection information for the CICSRequest node
You can create a configurable service
that the CICSRequest node
or message flow refers to at run time for connection information,
instead of defining the connection properties on the node or the message
flow. The advantage being that you can change the host name and performance
values without needing to redeploy your message flow.
