z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition 3.0 and 2.0 compatibility with CICS TS 5.4

Question & Answer


Question

Can z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition V3.0 and V2.0 be used with CICS Transaction Server for z/OS (CICS TS) V5.4? I want to make sure there are no compatibility problems. I would also like to know if there are any specific tasks that I need to perform for the z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition V3.0 and V2.0 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 z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition V3.0 and V2.0 are compatible with CICS TS V5.4. There are no "Notes" or "Details" for the z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition V3.0 and V2.0 n 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 "z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition" 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.
