Description
CICS Batch Application Control simplifies and automates the switch of resources between batch and CICS applications, reducing the need for manual intervention by operators and system programmers. The core of CICS Batch Application Control is the batch request utility, which runs as a standard batch job step, enabling you to control the states of CICS resources within multiple CICS regions. By invoking CICS Batch Application Control in successive batch jobs, and by scheduling multiple batch jobs throughout the working day, you can optimize the way resources are managed in your specific environment.
