Run the ACCT Application

Having created, configured, and started an enterprise server region for the ACCT application, you can now use the Rumba+ Desktop TN3270 mainframe emulator to run it.

Verify Rumba+ Desktop Options

Ensure that Eclipse is configured to use the embedded Rumba+ Desktop emulator to run mainframe applications:

1. In Eclipse, click Window > Preferences.
2. Expand Micro Focus > Enterprise Server, and click TN3270.
3. Ensure that Enable display, Rumba (Embedded) and Connect automatically are all selected.
4. Click Apply and Close.

Open the Rumba Mainframe Display View

Start the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view as follows:

• On the Server Explorer view, right-click the ESACCT enterprise server region; then select Show TN3270 Display from the context menu.

  This starts the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view and connects it to the ACCT application running on the ESACCT enterprise server region.

Initialize the ACCTFIL VSAM File

Before you can run the ACCT transaction, you need to initialize its VSAM file.

1. In the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view, press Ctrl+Shift+Z to clear the CESN login screen.
2. Enter CFCR ACCTFIL.

   If this is the first time you have run a CICS tutorial, you should see a message indicating that the ACCTFIL VSAM file was created successfully. Otherwise, the message explains that the ACCTFIL file already exists.

Display a record

1. Tab to the REQUEST TYPE field.
2. Type D to display a record.
3. In the ACCOUNT field, type 11111.
4. Press Enter. This displays the record retrieved from the database.

Exit the application

• Press Ctrl+Shift+Z twice to exit the application.
