Displays System Resources on Request

You can monitor system resources at anytime by issuing an online inquiry command to display a selected resource. CA Datacom CICS Services displays the requested information in a formatted panel or in scrollable form, depending on the transaction ID. CA Datacom CICS Services is installed with the following CICS transaction IDs for issuing online commands to monitor system resources:

DBEX DBEC

The inquiry command invokes a scrollable display of MUFs or URTs and, if requested, the tables listed in each URT. In an MRO environment, the display can be limited to MUFs or URTs in a specified CICS, or extend to MUFs or URTs in all CICS systems.

DBIC DBOC

Twenty inquiry commands are available to invoke formatted displays of the following resources and data:

• URTs, with or without associated CA Datacom/DB table information
• Trace table, either scrollable display of entries, criteria on which trace is based, or status of Auxiliary Trace
• Statistics: Active tasks, held transactions, abending tasks, concurrent users, requests by return code
• Options currently in use (defined through System Option Table (DBCVTPR) parameter values)
• Software maintenance level

DBUT

Displays storage areas for CICS programs and system tables at specified locations.
