5.2.7 TSO Batch User Command Counts File (TSO_BC)

The TSO Batch User Command Counts File (TSO_BC) contains data
that quantifies command usage by batch TSO jobs for defined
intervals of time.

You can use the TSO_BC file to audit the use of TSO batch
command facilities by a userid (JOBNAME) or group of userids
(JOBNAMEs).  You can also review the use of any command or
subcommand by a userid (JOBNAME) to analyze standards,
performance, or security considerations.

The TSO_BC file is derived from the TSO/MON System Record
(200), UCB, UCBE, and UCCB segments.

By default, the TSO_BC file is delivered inactive.

The following sections describe the file's organization, list
