DOCUMENT:Q268234 12-JUN-2001 [sna] TITLE :INF: Host Requirements for COMTI PRODUCT :Microsoft SNA Server PROD/VER:WINDOWS:4.0,4.0 SP1,4.0 SP2,4.0 SP3; : OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:sna4 kbsna400sp1 kbsna400sp2 kbsna400sp3 ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft SNA Server, versions 4.0, 4.0 SP1, 4.0 SP2, 4.0 SP3 - Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= As documented in the Readme file of both SNA Server and Host Integration Server 2000, the minimum host requirements required to use the COM Transaction Integrator component are as follows: - MVS with either CICS version 3.3 or IMS 4.0 or later and MVS APPC. IMS version 6.0 or later must be used for atomic transactions. - VSE V2.1.0 and CICS 2.1.0 or later. - TCP/IP V3R2 or later if TCP/IP is used . IBM has since changed the names and version numbers of some of these core host systems, which can lead to questions on whether or not a host system meets the minimum requirements for COMTI. Specifically, MVS has been renamed to OS/390, and CICS has been renamed to CICS TS (Transaction Server). The version numbers have also been changed, so it is possible to have a version number that is smaller than the version numbers in the preceding minimum requirements list. Because these products are actually newer than the minimum requirements, all versions of OS/390 and CICS TS meet the minimum requirements for COMTI, and are considered supported environments.
