Configuring FEPI

Planning your activities will help you to understand how to set up and configure FEPI in your system.

Analysis and planning
When you are planning to implement FEPI, you must consider the configuration requirements, how to organize your pools, their properties, and the connections.
Configuring CICS
Configuring the z/OS Communications Server
For FEPI to communicate with the network, some information must be defined to the z/OS® Communications Server.
Configuring the back-end systems
The only configuration that you must perform for the back-end systems is to provide and manage simulated terminals (LUs) for FEPI to use. These terminals are defined to the back-end CICS or IMS system just like real terminals. They can be explicitly defined or autoinstalled as required.
The configuration programs you should write
You must write a setup program to define your FEPI nodes, targets, property sets, and pools.
