When Language Environment is placed in the LNKLST, will any
CICS regions be affected?
Answer
If you are running CICS V3.3, then CICS issues a BLDL for module
'CEECCICS' to determine whether to attempt to start Language
Environment in the initializing region. This means that if the
SCEERUN dataset, which contains CEECCICS, is located in your
LNKLST, then CICS will attempt to initialize Language Environment,
even if your STEPLIB and DFHRPL has COBOL II and COBOL II libraries
placed at a higher level in your LNKLST concatenation. This is why
it's recommended that for CICS V3.3, the rollout of Language
Environment be done using a STEPLIB approach until all regions are
migrated from COBOL II to Language Environment. After the migration
is complete, using the LNKLST is no longer an issue.
APAR PQ06896 (PTF UQ0992) will correct this problem and you will
be able to put Language Environment in the LNKLST without any
problems.
