Prerequisites
The IBM VSE target system must be configured to support TCP/IP communications software from CSI international, IBM or Barnard Software, Inc..
For VSE installations, the only other setup step required is to concatenate the VSE TCP/IP library to the target CICS partition LIBDEF search list. For example, given the default VSE TCP/IP, CONNX and IBM Language Environment library names:
// LIBDEF *,SEARCH=(CNXVVRR.RUNLIB, X
PRD2.TCPIP, X
PRD2.CONFIG,PRD1.BASED,PRD1.BASE,PRD2.PROD,
X
PRD2.SCEECICD,PRD2.SCEECICS,PRD2.SCEEBASD,
X
PRD2.SCEEBASE,PRD2.DBASE),PERM
Before you install CONNX on your VSAM server, we recommend that you verify the TCP/IP connectivity to your VSE system. To verify connectivity, run:
ping hostname
where hostname is the TCP/IP symbolic address or dotted numeric address.
