Getting started with CICS Transaction Gateway container

This chapter is intended for users who have no previous experience with the CICS® Transaction Gateway container.

This section explains how to deploy and configure the CICS Transaction Gateway container and run your first CICS TG application. This scenario is designed to get the container running as quickly as possible with a standard configuration. Users can run the other scenarios described in this document with this experience.

The CICS TG Java sample program EciB2 runs in the client environment and passes a request to the CICS TG container deployed on a Linux machine to run the sample application EC01 on the CICS Transaction Server. EC01 returns the output to EciB2, which is then displayed on the console.

The following figure shows the topology that is used in this scenario:
