What is CICS Interdependency Analyzer ? CICS Interdependency Analyzer for z/OS (CICS IA)
Run-time and batch reporting tool
Captures resource relationships such as
what programs have potential affinities due to the CICS API commands within them
which resources (Programs, Files, TSQs TDQs etc) are required by a transaction
what resources are no longer used
which transactions have affinities to other transactions and the type and lifetimes of these affinities
the sequencing of transactions within an application
which transactions have affinities to particular CICS regions
Includes CICS, DB2, WebSphere MQ and IMS DB resources
Relationship data loaded onto a DB2 data base
Query interface and sample queries provided for comprehensive analysis

What is CICS Configuration Manager? CICS Configuration Manager for z/OS
Provides the ability to manage CICS resource definitions including
Create, Update, Delete, Copy, Replicate
Provides the ability to “change manage” definitional change through the various user environments (e.g. Development, Test, Production)
Provides the ability create customized reports, enabling users to identify redundant definitions, resource relationships, change management history
Provides audit, back-out and change authorization capabilities
Helps IT Managers, System Programmers and Application Developers to be more productive, as it: Greatly simplifies the task of managing new application development
through test and deployment
Speeds version to version migrations of both CICS and CICS apps
Simplifies CICS systems administration thus lowering costs and reducing downtime due to administrative errors
