command-level API. Application support is available for both single-byte and double-byte
character-set based applications.
Basic Mapping Support (BMS) maps are source-compatible, provided they use only CICS
family base level BMS when ported to CICS Transaction Server for iSeries. The CICS
macro-level API is not supported by CICS for iSeries. CICS for iSeries offers server support
for direct communication with workstation-based CICS clients over SNA APPC links, without
the need for an intermediate CICS OS/2 server.
Improved data integrity is ensured with CICS for iSeries exploiting the OS/400 two-phase
commit capability. When a CICS for iSeries application updates multiple systems, it ensures
successful updates of all files and backs out partial updates if the full transaction is not
completed. CICS for iSeries two-phase commit support provides a backward recovery facility.
The Inter-Systems Communications (ISC) facilities of CICS for iSeries allows connectivity to
other CICS platforms, giving access to both applications and data on those systems. CICS for
iSeries supports ISC functions on the following products:
• CICS for iSeries (other iSeries servers running CICS for iSeries)
• CICS/ESA V3R2 and V3R3
• CICS/MVS V2R1
• CICS/VSE V2R1
• CICS OS/2 V1R2 and V2R0
• CICS/6000 V1R1
CICS for iSeries InterSystem Communications (ISC) capabilities allow OS/400 users to share
data and applications with other CICS systems. Enhancements include a binary call interface
from other languages and more simplified OS/400-based administration.
