When you decide which type of LU 6.2 connection is to be established between the local and remote CICS systems, the process of definition can take place.
Only one ISC connection can be active between any two CICS systems at the same time. However, a single CICS system can have connections to multiple remote CICS systems at the same time.
The sender and requester channel definitions require the provision of the LU 6.2 connection name and, optionally, the CICS profile name to be used.
The relationship between CICS profiles and connections is shown in Figure 78. The uppercase fields are the names of the CEDA transaction entry, and the lowercase values are fields within those definitions that are relevant to the example.

If a sender channel is defined with the following characteristics, it causes a session to be allocated using a SES1 session on connection CON1:
If no CICS profile name is specified in the channel definition, DQM does not specify a profile when allocating a session.
