Title: (Paraphrase problem in a
single statement)CICS ISC Connections using
TCP/IP
Detailed
Problem Description: (Description of what you want changed - 400 character entry limit)
I am unable to utilize the
high performance Hypersocket environment that is available on the zSeries
hardware to establish an ISC link between CICS/TS Regions on separate
LPARs. Instead I have to establish some
sort of SNA Subarea connectivity between the LPARs which actually involves the
traffic either being sent across the LAN or over physical CTC connections
between the LPARs.

Medium
Requested Completion
Date: (When? Examples: 3 months, 1 year, Next Release) As soon as possible.

- Packaging - Interoperability)
Feature/Function and Performance
Business
Justification: (Why? Non-technical
business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem
Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your company,
and the vendor and others? Quantify:
run time, dollars, manpower, etc. Why
should the vendor do this for the customer?)
This will eliminate some of the storage and
overhead required for APPC ISC.
Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a
vendors ability to deliver a solution)
One suggestion might be to use what has already
been developed for CICS/TS ECI support and to expand upon it.
Impact: (Optional) (How
will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
Having to maintain expertise in VTAM and SNA
communications and having to battle the continued issue of 24bit storage
constraint with VTAM buffers below the line.
