Connection Security Profiles for the CICS Adapter

Profiles for checking connections from CICS take the form:

qmgr-name.CICS

where qmgr-name is the queue manager name. If it fails to find the profile, the connection request fails.

For connection requests by CICS, you need only permit the CICS address space user ID access to the connection profile.

For example, the following Security definitions allow the CICS address space user ID SYSAD to connect to the queue manager QM_nwb_magd820
