Its like we have two regions one is present in different location and other one is in our site and the data communication is done through converse area..


I am seeing the receive converse area directly.
so iam not clear why we are going for it and whats the speciality of it compared to existing cics commands.

If you're referring to an EXEC CICS CONVERSE command, then the requesting (front-end) region issues this command and waits until the back-end region responds.

Normally, the CONVERSE command is issued over LU6.2 conversations.

It is a combination of a SEND and RECEIVE on the front-end region.

On the back-end region, it is a combination of a RECEIVE and a SEND LAST (end-bracket generated).

Regards,

Bill
