Administering the Web User Interface

This information provides guidance for administrators on managing the Web User Interface.

The CICSPlex SM Web User Interface transaction (COVC)
A CICSPlex SM Web User Interface (WUI) server controller transaction (COVC) is supplied for use by an administrator with a terminal connected to the Web User Interface server CICS® region.
Web User Interface server repository
The Web User Interface (WUI) server repository contains all the recoverable resources maintained by the WUI server.
The output log (EYULOG)
The Web User Interface uses the CICSPlex SM EYULOG of the Web User Interface server (and not of the CMAS) to record most of its operator messages. Other messages are written to the operator log.
Source of customizable help
The customizable view and menu help is help that you can write if you want to provide additional help for your views and menus.
Access from the Web User Interface to an external server
The Web User Interface can access other web-based tools.
Providing access to WUI views and menus
The Web User Interface is accessed using standard Web browser software. Users can link to the WUI from any location that can launch a Web browser by supplying a valid URL.
Setting CMAS and MAS trace flags
You can use the WUI to set CMAS and MAS trace flags.
