Configuring client daemon settings

The client daemon settings are defined in the ctg.ini configuration file. The client daemon manages TCP/IP and SNA connections to CICS® servers.

Maximum buffer size
The maxbuffersize parameter specifies the size of the transmission buffers in which application data or terminal data flows to CICS servers.
Terminal exit
The terminalexit parameter specifies a character string that, when entered in place of a transaction name in a terminal emulator, causes the terminal emulator to terminate.
Maximum servers
The maxservers parameter specifies the maximum number of servers that can be accessed concurrently from the Client daemon.
Maximum requests
The maxrequests parameter specifies the maximum number of concurrent tasks that can be handled by the Client daemon.
Print command
The printcommand parameter specifies how the operating system, that CICS Transaction Gateway is running on, must process requests to print from CICS.
Print file
The PRINTFILE parameter identifies a file that output from print requests is directed to.
Code page identifier override
The CCSID parameter specifies the Coded Character Set Identifier (CCSID) to override the default local code page identifier used by the Client daemon.
Server retry interval
The srvretryinterval parameter specifies the time between attempts made by the Client daemon to reconnect to a CICS server.
Enable pop-up windows
The enablepopups parameter enables the display of security pop-up windows.
Use OEM code page
The useoemcp parameter specifies if the CICS Transaction Gateway uses the Windows operating system OEM code page function or the Windows operating system ACP function to retrieve the code page identifier for data flowed over TCP/IP or SNA server connections.
Client daemon logging
You can change the location and name of the log files generated by the client daemon. Also, you can enable client daemon logging in JSON format by using the CLIENTJSONLOGGING parameter.
