Allow URIMAP endpoint overlay with pooling capability intact

The pooling feature of URIMAPs is highly efficient compaired to no-reuse of threads in Cics webservices. Having many different webservices being called FROM cics we would not be able to benefit from the pooling capability - unless Cics could open the possibility for us to overwrite the URIMAP as part of the EXEC CICS INVOKE SERVICE api call.

    This requirements has been re-assessed. We have no plans for this to be implemented and so this requirement is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and might be reassessed in the future. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.

    Our requirement is to allow override of endpoint on URIMAP in web service request. We use SSL handshake with our ESB and have defined the URIMAP with 'Ciphers(TLSRSAwithNullSHA256.xml) ' and
    'Certificate(IntCICSWeb2DataPower.S00001) '.
    to avoid to have to define individual URIMAP for all non CICS Web Services we have defined 'Path(/syst) ' The Path is then replaced with the right Path at runtime. We include URIMAP name in the EXEC CICS INVOKE SERVICE. But when we change Path the Urimap is not longer used. We can not control SSL Ciphers and Certificates and we do not get the benefit from pooling.

    Please can you clarify what is being asked for here. Are you asking for support for URIMAP on the INVOKE command, then that support is already provided. Or are you asking for client mode URIMAPS to tolerate wildcards, ie for INVOKE to set the URI field and for CICS to match that URI against a wildcarded client mode URIMAP ?
