Accessing other File Manager functions from the primary option menu

You can allow users to invoke File Manager Base function, or FM/Db2 or FM/IMS (if installed), from the FM/CICS primary option menu.

To do this you customize your File Manager Base function security, using RACF® (or your equivalent security product) or FMNSECUR. For more information refer to Customizing the FM/CICS security environment.

If you plan to access FM/Db2 from FM/CICS, then ensure that the SYSPROC DD statement in FMN3CICB references the File Manager CLIST library, SFMNCLIB. You should also ensure that the user's FM/CICS startup JCL specifies or defaults to a region size of at least 8M. For information about modifying FMN3CICB, see Customizing the batch procedure.
