JCL to automate CICS shutdown and startup

Does anyone have sample JCL for CICS region shutdown and startup that they can share?

I need to create 2 new Control-M for z/OS jobs that will first bring down the CICS regions and and another job to bring them up and I need JCL to handle the requests.

Thanks in advance!

There are various ways to startup CICS regions depending upon how the regions are configured. For example, started task vs. jcl. You need to work with your CICS systems programmers to find out how they are started in your environment.

Thank you. I set up JCL and had Operations test it. Everythig was successful and we went live with it today.
