21 System events in Policy Policy RTA Event Processing App Events (in EP) System Events (in EP) Task Rules CICS 5.1 System Rules CICS 5.4 (backported to 5.1) A long long long long time ago CICS

22 Dynamic policy based management of applications that span multiple languages Policies are now expanded to support a new set of systembased rules. This simplifies CICS systems management by providing a single place to create and manage both task-based and system-based policy rules. 28

23 Dynamic policy based management of applications that span multiple languages Policies now provide the same capabilities as CICS system events and with a number of additional advantages. These include: ü ü ü combining multiple rules in a single policy writing a message to the CICS log in addition to emitting an event removing the requirement to define a capture specification for each event 29

24 Dynamic policy based management of applications that span multiple languages A new policy rules editor in the CICS Explorer replaces the more limited functionality provided by the previous policy definition wizard. Additional capabilities include: ü ü ü editing existing policies defining multiple rules in a single policy specifying a user-defined abend code for the abend action on task rules 30

25 Dynamic policy based management of applications that span multiple languages IMPORTANT NOTICE: CICS system events are now deprecated and may be removed in a future release of CICS. CICS policies are the strategic replacement for the CICS system events technology. All events emitted by policy make use of the existing CICS events infrastructure. The underlying CICS events infrastructure and CICS application events remain strategic. 31

27 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages CICS Explorer Smart card support is added. The CICS Explorer can now authenticate using certificates that are either stored on disk, or stored on a smart card that must be attached during CICS Explorer usage. 33

28 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages CICS Explorer Multi-Factor Authentication support is added from CICS Explorer (with CICS APAR PI87691) 34

29 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages CICS TS now supports three new IBM Health Checker for z/os checks, each of which define security best practices. If a CICS region becomes noncompliant, a Health Checker exception message will be issued. CICS_CEDA_ACCESS CICS_JOBSUB_SPOOL CICS_JOBSUB_TDQINTRDR 35

30 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages CICS TS can now utilize the z/os Workload Manager Health API as a means of controlling the flow of work into a CICS region. This can allow a CICS region to have a warm-up process after system initialization, to help to ensure that the CICS region is ready to receive work. 36

31 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages SIT parameter WLMHEALTH=OFF WLMHEALTH=20,25 SPI Command EXEC CICS SET WLMHEALTH OPENSTATUS() INTERVAL() ADJUSTMENT() Allows regions to be open/closed for listening Interval = 20 seconds Increment = 25% 20 s = 25% 40 s = 50% 60 s = 75% 80 s = 100% 37

32 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages TCP/IP Sysplex Distributor & port sharing Avoids new TCP/IP connections being sent to CICS regions that are not ready Works with all TCP/IP listeners, CICS Web support, EZA sockets, Liberty Allows JVM servers and web service pipelines to fully initialize Shutdown of TCP/IP services now sends HTTP close headers MQ adapter Prevents trigger message floods at startup CICSPlex SM WLM WLM dynamic routing will avoid AORs with WLMHEALTH = 0 38

33 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages CICSPlex SM MAS internal tasks now run as CICS system transactions and are implemented under the standard CICS CAT1 security category. Additionally, this improves CICS TS resiliency by avoiding the possibility that a user could inadvertently purge critical system management tasks. Fig.1 Internal MAS tasks not displayed for CICS V5.4 MAS Fig.2 For WLM V5.3 AOR has routing bias of 6 by default, V5.4 has 0. 39

34 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages The CICS 3270 Intrusion Detection Service (IDS) can help alert you to 3270 protocol violations as they occur in CICS Basic Mapping Support (BMS) applications. CICS TS also integrates with the new z/os Communication Server IDS function to identify potential protocol violations in real time, for both BMS and native 3270 data streams. 40

35 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages New CICS transactions CEDG and CEDY are introduced, which examine application programs safely when debugging in a production environment, without the risk of inadvertently overwriting sensitive inmemory storage. CEDG = R/O CEDF CEDY = R/O CEDX 41

36 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages Additional security infrastructure enhancements are added to: CICS TS now supports mutual authentication for Kerberos so that a client who uses Kerberos can verify the identity of the CICS TS server. The default CICS start-up configuration has been changed such that only CICS regions defined to RACF will be allowed to generate RACF passtickets. Daily logging of userids that only use web access is now mandatory and the performance of this logging is improved. Pre-set userid terminals that do not have terminal specific security can now be configured to share System Authorization Facilty (SAF) security registration. 42

37 Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages By default, only CICS regions defined to RACF will be allowed to generate passtickets XPTKT=YES Shared SAF security registration SNPRESET = UNIQUE SHARED For terminals that do not have terminal-specific security have pre-set userids Shared ACEE -> Reduction in 31-bit storage consumption and CPU Daily logging of userids that only use web access is now mandatory Removal of SECVFYFREQ SIT parameter 46

38 Major new and enhanced capabilities in V5.4 Support for applications written to the Java EE 7 Full Platform specification. A powerful new asynchronous API to extend programming language capabilities. Dynamic policy based management of applications that span multiple languages. Enhanced security and resiliency of applications across all languages. API extensions that enables improved interoperability with batch applications. Enhanced management capabilities for applications that utilize IBM MQ for z/os. Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows. 47

39 API extensions that enables improved interoperability with batch applications The EXCI interface enables standalone applications that run on z/os to programmatically interoperate with CICS-hosted applications and APIs. This interface is now enhanced to add support for CICS channels and containers. It provides a mechanism to exchange large volumes of structured parameter data between batch applications and CICS applications. 48

40 API extensions that enables improved interoperability with batch applications Any CICS applications coded to the channel and containers API and invoked using Distributed Program Link (DPL) can also be invoked unchanged from an EXCI client, including CICS applications that run on earlier CICS TS releases that support channels and containers. 49

41 API extensions that enables improved interoperability with batch applications This new API can also be used as a way to pass data between programs that run outside CICS, such as programs that make up a batch application, even if the application does not communicate with CICS. 50

42 API extensions that enables improved interoperability with batch applications 2,500 Large payload 2,000 CPU per request (microsec) 1,500 1,000 commarea channel ,000 1,000,000 1,500,000 2,000,000 2,500,000 Bytes transmitted 51

Enhanced management capabilities for applications that utilize IBM MQ for z/os. Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows. 52

44 Enhanced management capabilities for applications that utilize IBM MQ for z/os CICS system administration of applications that utilize MQ is simplified. A new resource definition online (RDO) defined resource MQMONITOR provides control over the transaction ID and user ID under which a monitor task runs. CICS can now automatically start and stop MQ monitor tasks, which are based on the status of the MQCONN resource. 53

45 WLM Health Interaction If WLM health is enabled CICS postpones starting of MQMONITORs until WLMHEALTH > 0% If WLM health percentage is < 100 % message GET rate is limited When WLMHEALTH drops to 0%, all MQMONITORs are stopped DFHMQ0370 MQMONITORs are currently restricted to nnn MQGETs per second 56

46 Enhanced management capabilities for applications that utilize IBM MQ for z/os In addition, the MQ resource adapter can be configured as a JMS provider in the CICS Liberty JVM server. MQ servers on any platform are now supported as a JMS provider. When using MQ on z/os on the same LPAR, crossmemory bindings can be used to optimize performance. Java Applications that use the MQ Classes for Java or the MQ Classes for JMS in the OSGi JVM server to access MQ for z/os, can gain a performance benefit from reduced TCB switching. 57

47 Major new and enhanced capabilities in V5.4 Support for applications written to the Java EE 7 Full Platform specification.

Enhanced management capabilities for applications that utilize IBM MQ for z/os. Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows. 58

48 Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows The quick filter capability of CICS Explorer is redesigned to easily create additional views that focus on specific information. Quick filters can be added to existing views and a full set of equality operators are now available. 59

49 Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows Quick filters can also now be quickly saved to permanent view configurations to provide rapid access to frequently used information. View configurations can be exported for sharing across teams and for back-up purposes, and can now be imported into CICS Explorer instances from a central web server. 60

50 Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows Scriptable automation is extended by using enhancements to the DFHDPLOY batch utility, which can now also perform PIPELINE SCAN, PROGRAM NEWCOPY and PROGRAM PHASEIN operations. This enables automation to be written to update these resources without requiring the direct use of the CICSPlex SM API. 61

51 Numerous enhancements to simplify or automate common workflows Upgrades are simplified because system auto install is now used to install program definitions for Language Environment (LE) as required. Only those programs that are used will have their definitions installed. This drastically reduces the number of installed definitions and removes the need for LE definitions to be refreshed for each individual CICS region when z/os is upgraded. Use only these Language Environment runtime libraries for all your high-level language application programs 62
