This 4-day, instructor-led, advanced-level course teaches you how to install, configure, and use CICS TS System Manager components and functions.

The course begins by covering the installation process for CICSPlex System Manager (CICSPlex SM), along with how to configure and start a CICSPlex Managing Address Space (CMAS) and the Web user interface server (WUI). Throughout the course, students learn about the interfaces supplied by the product, such as the WUI, application programming interface (API), and batch repository utility (BATCHREP).

Students learn how each of the functional components of CICSPlex SM is configured and controlled, including topology (TOP), Workload Manager (WLM), real-time analysis (RTA), monitor (MON), and Business Application Services (BAS). This course also covers how to define CICS Manager Address Spaces and provides an overview of the security environment needed by CICSPlex SM, including the external security manager (ESM) RACF definitions.
