Question
Do IBM z/OS Provisioning Toolkit V1.0.1 and V1.0.0 support CICS Transaction Server for z/OS (CICS TS) V5.4? I want to make sure IBM z/OS Provisioning Toolkit V1.0.1 and V1.0.0 can be used with CICS TS V5.4 and that there are no known compatibility problems. I would also like to know if there are any specific tasks that I need to perform for the z/OS Provisioning Toolkit when upgrading to CICS TS V5.4.
Answer
The Software Product Compatibility Report, also known as the Detailed System Requirements (DSR), for CICS TS V5.4 indicates that IBM z/OS Provisioning Toolkit V1.0.1 and V1.0.0 are compatible with CICS TS V5.4. There are no "Notes" or "Details" for the z/OS Provisioning Toolkit in the DSR indicating that there are no compatibility PTFs required.
You should review the Detailed System Requirements for CICS TS V5.4 to make sure that there have not been any "Notes" or "Details" added since this question was posted. You will find "IBM z/OS Provisioning Toolkit" in the "Supported Software" tab along with other Tools.
If installing any other version of CICS TS, see Detailed System Requirements for CICS TS for links to the DSRs for other supported versions of CICS.
