Allow dynamic parameters to be passed to PLTPI programs

Our product optionally uses parameters defined in the SIT as INITPARM data. The data is read when the program executes, and specifies control options. Our goal of simplifying the installation of the product would be far simpler if we had a more dynamic means of providing the parameters.

    Have you thought of inquiring the current CICS status and acting upon that ? Is CICS in the INIT-Phase, use INITPARM, otherwise read from a extrapartition TD-queue.

    Could Omegamon achieve this by using their slot in the Vendor anchor table ?
