NATURAL CICS Transactions Supported Platforms and Release Information

The following platforms are supported: Microsoft Windows, UNIX, and z/OS.

For Microsoft Windows and UNIX based servers that use AnyNET or LU6.2 to communicate with any NATURAL CICS Transactions region, the following minimum software release levels on a target are required:

z/OS Version 1.1 or higher
NATURAL CICS Version 4 or higher
TCP/IP Direct Access, CICS TS2.3 or higher

Note: To use TCP62 or AnyNET, all VTAM options for AnyNET must be configured and AnyNET must be active.

For z/OS based servers, the following minimum software release levels are required:

z/OS Version 1.1 or higher
NATURAL CICS Version 4 or higher

Note: Because the EXCI option is being used, the adapter can only communicate with NATURAL CICS Transactions regions that are running on the same LPAR. Also, the STEPLIB of the EDASTART JCL member of the configuration data set needs to include the NATURAL CICS Transactions SDFHEXCI library.
