Check the Monitoring Status Display

Before continuing, we will check the Monitoring Status display for the program COBDEMO. You should see the options you set for the program, which are needed to complete the Demo Options in the rest of this guide.

1. On the Program Monitoring menu, scroll the Options list to the beginning. Either enter the TOP command and press Enter or press PF7.

2. Type an s next to the Status option to obtain a Monitoring Status display of the COBDEMO program.

   The Monitoring Status display for COBDEMO should show the three breakpoints needed to perform the Demo Session Options; the Request Breakpoint (RBP) at all REWRITE commands, and the two Unconditional Breakpoints (UBPs).

3. Press PF3 to exit back to the Program Monitoring menu.
4. Type =x in the Command field to exit the menus, then PF3 to exit Source Listing.

   Exiting the menus and Source Listing returns you to CICS, where you can begin executing the COBDEMO program.
