Sharing the CSD across difference releases of CICS®.

Figure 1 shows a normal DEFINE panel for the TCPIPSERVICE definition.

For details of using CEDA, see Resource management transaction CEDA commands. For background information about the CSD compatibility panel, see Sharing the CSD between different releases of CICS.

Use the PF2 key to change to the compatibility mode DEFINE panel for the TCPIPSERVICE. Use the PF2 key again to return to the normal mode DEFINE panel.

It is not possible to have both current and obsolete attributes in the same TCPIPSERVICE definition. For more information, see TCPIPSERVICE resources.
