Resource definition to enable data conversion

To convert data in CICS® Transaction Server for z/OS®, you must define some resources in your CICS region.

You must define the following resources:
  • DFHCNV, conversion table.

    You might have different versions of the DFHCNV table, for example, to deal with different versions of applications, or production and test systems. One way to ensure that the appropriate DFHCNVxx load modules are used is to put the DFHCNV program into a LIBRARY, so that the group with this library is installed in the region with the appropriate level of programs.

  • DFHCCNV, standard conversion program.
  • DFHUCNV, user-defined conversion program.
