8.12.2.2 Package Management

The CICS application packages are managed in the Tuxedo Summary page (same as Tuxedo application packages). For more information, see Application Package Management.

When uploading, a validation is performed for Properties.xml file and .desc resource configuration files in each package. The Properties.xml file is validated against the .xsd XML schema, while the resource configuration files are validated for the correct file format and content (for example, unique key field constraint, column number, and required columns etc.).

If any validation fails, the uploading fails with error message appearing. All errors in the package are reported in the pop-up dialog.

For existing domains, one default package is generated and applied to current ART CICS package list. This special package only contains resource files used in runtime environment.

To dynamically deploy a new added machine, configuration shell script including creating TLOG,/Q, special environment variable export, and so on must be added to CICS package.
