CICS SPI parameters
If you enable your task-related exit program with the SPI option of the EXEC CICS ENABLE PROGRAM command, the exit program can be started when you use the EXEC CICS INQUIRE EXITPROGRAM command or on which the CONNECTST or QUALIFIER option is specified.
Use the INQUIRE EXITPROGRAM command to query whether the exit program is connected to its resource manager, and its entryname qualifier. For information about the INQUIRE EXITPROGRAM command, see INQUIRE EXITPROGRAM.
The CICS® SPI parameter list contains two entries:
- Parameter 1
- The address of a 1- byte output field, which your task-related
exit program uses to indicate whether it is connected to its external
resource manager. The equated return code values are as follows:
- UERTCONN
- (X'80') The exit is connected to its resource manager.
- UERTNCONN
- (X'40') The exit is not connected to its resource manager.
- Parameter 2
- The address of an 8- character output field, in which your task-related exit program returns the qualifier of the external resource manager, if known. See the UEPRMQUA parameter in DFHUEPAR for more information about qualifier names.
