Defining the sample applications data sets

CICS® provides a range of samples that you can use to help develop your own applications and test various CICS functions; for example, as an aid to verifying that CICS has installed correctly.

Before you can use some of these samples, you must create the data sets that they use, and make them available to your CICS region, as described in these topics. Do not create these data sets, unless you intend using the associated sample applications.
