1.4.7 IBM User Maintained Tables (UMT)

The Connection file, BEAVCON, defaults to a user maintained table (UMT). If you choose to change this file to a VSAM file you must add the transaction BDWN to PLTSI for CICS. This transaction’s primary function is to shut down all the active Requesters, but one of its secondary functions is to remove all the entries from the Connection file. The Connection file must be empty before initializing activity.
