Query the CCILGR

You should regularly and pro-actively query the state of CCILGR by using the MODIFY commands. For more information, see the Common Communications Interface chapter of the CA Common Services for z/OS Administration Guide.

The REPORT, STATUS, DBSTATUS, and DISPLAY commands are very useful and can be issued from the console at any time, or even automated.

The REPORT command writes to a dynamically allocated DD called ADREPORT. The STATUS, DBSTATUS, and DISPLAY commands write to SYSOUT.

REPORT example

The following command shows the current number of records in the VSAM file and who they are for:

F CCILGR,REPORT

SYSID APPLICATION ID REC COUNT AVG REC L MAX REC L

MYPLEX CA-ACF2/CPF-CMD 6499 178 178

TOTAL 6499 178 178

STATUS example

The following command shows the number of converses or sends attempted and completed from the local to the destination. The RECOVERY application ID is static, is always shown, and means the local system.

F CCILGR,STATUS

TASK# APPLICATION CATM CCMP SATM SCMP 323 02 RECOVERY 03 #MYPLEX CA-ACF2/CPF-CMD 5513 5513 0 0 CAS9899I: END OF COMMAND

DBSTATUS example

The following command provides the current statistics about the VSAM file:

F CCILGR,DBSTATUS

LOOK ASIDES BUFF READS MAX STRINGS AVSPAC EXTENTS 50282 1568 2 88848K 25 CAS9899I: END OF COMMAND

DISPLAY example

The following command identifies the current VSAM file in use, and provides the space and extent statistics:

F CCILGR,DISPLAY

CAS9780I - CAICCI AD OPN(Y) DSN=CA90SMVS.CCILGR.LGR CAS9781I - CAICCI AD AVAIL SPACE(00088864K) PERCENT FULL(001) EXTENTS(025) CAS9899I: END OF COMMAND
