USR: Limit Monitoring to a CICS User ID

When security is active in the region and the IN25OPTS global installation option is set to DFLTUSR=SPECIFIC, a signed on user's monitoring request defaults to using the requester's individual user ID (USR=userid). Otherwise, the default USR= option is set to .ANY.

Monitoring options set for a specific user ID have advantages. The From and To terminals automatically default to .ANY. This means that you can switch terminals and continue to have monitoring, breakpoints, and options set for his user ID directed to the new terminal.

For releases 5.4 and higher, to limit monitoring to a specific CICS user ID in a secure region, enter:

USR=userid
userid

Specifies CICS user ID.

To monitor all users of the promid, enter:

USR=.ANY
