Display System-Related Areas

The System‑Related Areas menu lets you display the following, either from the beginning or from a specified offset or scan value:

Specify the area to display using one of the following entries:

CICS AREA

To get an entire area or table, specify any CORE key area, such as CSA.

ADDRESS

To get a CICS address, specify one to eight hexadecimal digits.

CICS TABLE entry

To get a single table entry, specify the entry next to the appropriate table.

Note: To display the entire table, use the CICS AREA field.

PROGRAM

To get a program load module, specify a program name.

PROGRAM and M

To display a BMS MAP, specify the map name in the PROGRAM field, and specify M in the field to the right.

After specifying the system areas for display, specify where to begin the display using the Optional offset and/or Scan fields.

Optional offset

Specify a hexadecimal offset or sequence of offsets.
Each offset must begin with either + (a positive hexadecimal displacement), ‑ (a negative hexadecimal displacement), @ (an indirect address), or % (an indirect XA address). You can also calculate offsets. For example: @32*4.

Scan Value and Range

CA InterTest for CICS searches for the value you specify in the range of hexadecimal or decimal bytes you specify.

To get the requested display, press Enter for a structured display. (Structured displays give field names and main storage contents in DSECT sequence.)

From the structured display, press Enter for a dump display. (Dump displays give main storage contents with 16 hexadecimal and character bytes per line.)
