Installing ATOMSERVICE resource definitions

This procedure uses the CEMT and CEDA transactions to install an ATOMSERVICE resource definition. If the ATOMSERVICE resource already exists, it has to be disabled before it can be reinstalled.

Procedure

  1. If the ATOMSERVICE resource already exists, ensure that it is disabled.
    Use the following command:
    CEMT SET ATOMSERVICE(name) DISABLED
    While the ATOMSERVICE resource is disabled, if a web client makes an HTTP request that requires the resource, CICS® returns an HTTP 503 response (Service Unavailable) to the web client.
  2. Install the ATOMSERVICE definition.
    Use the following command:
    CEDA INSTALL GROUP(groupname) ATOMSERVICE(name)
  3. Optional: When you have successfully installed the ATOMSERVICE definition, use CEMT to enable the resource.
    Perform this step only if the ATOMSERVICE resource is not already defined as ENABLED, and you want to make the resource available for web clients. Use the following command:
    CEMT SET ATOMSERVICE(name) ENABLED
