CICS Transaction Gateway

Showing 108 of 8524

The Gateway daemon should protect itself from storage shortage conditions

The Gateway daemon continues to allocate new resources such as connection manager threads, worker threads or IPIC connections when the system administrator has not allowed sufficient Java heap or region storage for those resources. This leads to s...

Ability to copy/paste from cicsterm screen

Currently in the Windows version of the CICS Transaction Gateway for Multiplatforms, the cicsterm 3270 terminal emulation program does not allow copy/paste operations.

Platform independent code page handling for ECI applications

Allow the same ECI application code to interoperate with a Gateway daemon running on z/OS or one of the Multiplatforms operating systems, with consistent code page conversion. This would bring simplify application development and promote easy re-u...

Improve granularity of diagnostics for ECI security errors

Provide the details required to diagnose the root cause of an ECI_ERR_SECURITY_ERROR. Access to sub-reasons / SAF codes would go a long way to solving this issue.

SSL server certificate authentication

It should be possible to force the JavaGateway API to validate that the SSL server certificate details match the specified target server name.

SSL connection authentication via distinguished name filtering

The requirement is for a configurable mechanism enabling client certificates used on SSL connections to be filtered by distinguished name fields cn, c or ou.

ECI over TCPIP connection restart after ECI time out

Automatic drop and subsequent re-connect of a ECI TCPIP connection from CICS TG to CICS TS, following a network slowdown resulting in multiple ECI timeout.
