Installing BAS global enqueue model definitions

Install the BAS resource object for the global enqueue model definition to make it available in the CICS® region.

Before you begin

You must have created the required ENQMDEF resource object in the data repository to install the global enqueue model definition in the CICS region.

About this task

Enqueue models forming nested generic enqueue names must be installed either in the disabled state or in order, from the most specific (for example, ABCD) to the least specific (for example, AB*). If another enqueue model with the same or a less specific nested enqueue name is already installed and enabled, the installation fails. You can install disabled enqueue models in any order, but you must enable them in order from most specific to least specific.

You can install the BAS resource object using the CICS Explorer® or the Web User Interface. These instructions explain the procedure for the Web User Interface.

Procedure

  1. From the main menu, click Administration > Basic CICS resource administration > Resource definitions > Global enqueue model definitions
  2. Click the Record check box to select a enqueue model definition and click the Install... button.
    Alternatively, click a enqueue model definition name and click the Install... button on the Global enqeue detailed view.

Results

The global enqueue model definition installs in the specified CICS region.

What to do next

After the resource definition installs successfully, you can inquire about the resource by clicking CICS operations > Global enqueue model operations views > Global enqueue model.
