What IBM says at www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21595844:
| Quote: |
Abstract
Information centers for CICS Transaction Server for z/OS (CICS TS) 4.2 and 4.1, that you access from the web, have moved from the publib.boulder server to the pic.dhe server. Redirects are in place so your existing bookmarks will continue to work for some time. However, you should bookmark the new URLs and you might need to define the new pic.dhe domain to your firewall.
Content
The information centers for CICS TS V4.2 and V4.1 have moved to a new server hosted on pic.dhe.
The new URLs are:
CICS TS 4.2 - pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v4r2/index.jsp
CICS TS 4.1 - pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v4r1/index.jsp
The old URLs were:
CICS TS 4.2 - publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v4r2/index.jsp
CICS TS 4.1 - publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v4r1/index.jsp
If you use bookmarks for the old URLs, your browser should automatically redirect to the new location. However, you might want to bookmark the new URLs to avoid the redirects and broken links that will occur once the redirects are no longer in place.
If your firewall controls what URLs can be used, you might need to also define the new pic.dhe domain to your firewall.
The information centers for CICS TS V3.2 and V3.1 have not changed yet, but they might eventually move to the new server.

| The tokens delimited by periods have significance right-to-left, so it's some site belonging to IBM. The z/OS information centers are still at publib.boulder.ibm.com -- a URL which is admiitedly easier to interpret in English. |

Brainstorming; pic = product information center (???)
I searched for 'dhe' from the main IBM page and found info on two types of servers:
BladeCenter HX5 7873-DHE
System x3650 7979-DHE
Then I did a google search for BladeCenter HX5 7873-DHE and it took me to a page at IBM that listed the different configurations for a blade center. They all had three letter suffixes to indicate their particular memory/processor/speed/etc combinations:
www-03.ibm.com/systems/xbc/cog/bc_hx5_7873/bc_hx5_7873aag.html
So...my guess is the server that holds the docs is a DHE type blade server and they pointed that sub-domain to it. |

Ditto - they were easier to interpret in English. |

| Thanks ED. I did spend time in finding the meaning of it but in vain - your brainstorming sounds rather meaningful, Thanks. |
