ATTDSP

The CICS® transaction specifies the data stream profile (ATTDSP) in the DATASTR field of the BUILD ATTACH command to determine the IMS component.

This field can contain the following values:
X'00'
Identifies IMS component 1
X'01'
Identifies IMS component 2
X'02'
Identifies IMS component 3
X'03'
Identifies IMS component 4

When received by IMS, this input component determines the default output component, the input security requirements, and whether MFS can be used for input. The output component determines whether MFS is used for output, and the protocols that are to be sent on asynchronous output are sent ATTACH SCHEDULER. On output, IMS sets this value to the value of the output LTERM.
