To initialize CICS® data sharing servers, you must set up AXM system services and define the appropriate data sharing server.
Users implementing CICSPlex SM sysplex optimised workload management will require a region status server to be configured. This server is a bespoke type of CFDT server into which CICS regions broadcast generic system status data which is subsequently interrogated by CICSPLEX SM for making dynamic routing decisions. The table structure managed by this server may not be modified, adjusted, or reconfigured for user application utilization.
