Enhanced Commands

Enhanced commands allow you to monitor and control Multi-User Facilities (MUFs), User Requirements Tables (URTs), and CA Datacom Tables across multiple CICSs in a MRO/ISC environment.

All enhanced commands can be issued with a single transaction ID (the default is DBEC). Enhanced commands that are used for monitoring MUFs and URTs in read-only mode can be issued with a secondary transaction ID (the default is DBEX). The purpose of the secondary ID is to extend the availability of the monitoring function to users who are typically not authorized for control functions.

For details about using enhanced commands to monitor MUFs, URTs, and Tables, see one of the following sections:

For details about using enhanced commands to control MUFs, URTs, and Tables, see one of the following sections:

Note: When DBEC/DBEX commands are issued and invalid input is encountered with valid input and the input commands do not have conflicted meaning, the command processed is from the valid input. The invalid input is ignored.

The z/VSE DBCVTPR definition does not allow the addition of the DBCSID macro to define MUF connections. Therefore, the SIDNAME limiter with DBEC/DBEX commands is irrelevant and should not be used.

Note: The screen examples presented are not limited to either local or remote commands and can be with or without the SYSID parameter.
