MONXA SELECT file showing the distributed defaults.

Record identifiers for MONXA data are a maximum of four
characters long.  The record identifier consists of two
parts, the VM domain and the VM record, separated by a slash
(/).

To specify all VM Monitor records, code an asterisk (*) as
the domain identifier.  To specify all records within a VM
domain, code an asterisk as the record code.  Figure 3-3, the
VM Monitor Data Selection Report, lists the available domains
and records.

NOTE: Do not exclude domain 1 VM Monitor records from
      transmission due to requirements in the CA MICS VM and
      CMS Analyzer.

EXAMPLE:  Retain only system-wide data, configuration data,
processor data, and device data.

    EXCLUDE *             ! drop all records (except those
    *                       required by CA MICS VMC)
    INCLUDE 0/* 1/* 5/*   ! send SYSTEM, MONITOR, PROCESSOR,
    INCLUDE 6/*           ! and I/O DOMAIN data
    UNKNOWN EXCLUDE       ! drop all custom records


When you use the PF5 key to Create/Edit the JCL from the VM
Monitor Data Parameters panel, the following screen is
displayed.
