You can use line commands to work with a specific inclusion/exclusion or to insert a new system. To use line commands, place the cursor in the LC column to the left of the system and enter one of the following values:

You can also use primary command I (Insert) to enter a new system inclusion or exclusion.

If you choose to insert (I) or change (C) a system exclusion or inclusion, the panel shown following is displayed.

Inclusions are recommended when defining system names.

Generic notation of system names is allowed using * as a wildcard.

For example: SYSP* INCLUDED

In this example, all system names that do not begin with SYSP* are implicitly excluded from the CICS SMF Scope.

All defined system names must be either inclusions or exclusions.

You are not allowed to mix these definitions.
