AUX= Resetting the Auxiliary Trace Options

The Trace Facility provides history data for the last user controlled number of events. When it is necessary to trace numerous DB request events, CA Datacom CICS Services provides the capability to write the traced request to a sequential data set. The Auxiliary file destination is defined with the AUXTRCE= parameter of the DBCVTPR. To conserve resources, use this facility sparingly. To turn on or off this facility for the current CICS session, issue the following transaction.
