friends, is the channel and container available with CICS 6.3.0?

EXEC CICS PUT CONTAINER (CUSTOMER-NO) CHANNEL (INQUIRY-CHANNEL)
FROM (CUSTNO) FLENGTH (LENGTH OF CUSTNO)
END-EXEC.
EXEC CICS LINK PROGRAM ('WMC120U') CHANNEL (INQUIRY-CHANNEL).
END-EXEC.

I am trying to compile above code in CICS 6.3.0 and getting below compilation error.

OPTION 'CHANNEL' IS NOT VALID AND IS IGNORED.
'END-EXEC' ASSUMED AFTER 'PROGRAM ('WMC120U')'.

Hi !

If i remember correctly, CICS TransaktionServer V3.1, or later, must be present.

Yes, looks like a minof 3.1..
Just wonder why the prior PUT didn't fail......
