Advanced Demo Session › Option 02: Limit CICS Storage and Requests › Limit CICS Requests

Limit CICS Requests

The next screen that appears is the Automatic Breakpoint Display screen. CA InterTest for CICS halted ASMDEMO at an automatic breakpoint because the maximum number of CICS requests (20) was exceeded.

Note: If you are working on a system with LE 370 runtimes, you could reach the automatic breakpoint for the MXS (max storage size) first. If you do, perform the demo in the following order:

1. CA InterTest for CICS Limits Acquisition of Storage removing the MXS Option
2. CA InterTest for CICS Limits CICS Requests removing the MXR Option
3. The Demo Program Executes to Completion

The instruction that triggered the automatic breakpoint is within a loop containing a CICS request.
