CICS Transaction Statistics

To obtain additional CICS transaction statistics for a given transaction that displays on the TranView panel, enter the line command S next to the desired transaction. These statistics are derived from CICS Transaction Monitoring data (control block DFHMNTDS) as described in the IBM manual, CICS Transaction Server for z/OS Data Areas.

You can request additional transaction statistics in the categories listed iollowing. See the CICS Performance Guide for further information about these statistics.

In order to correctly interpret these statistics, you will need to understand the relationships between response times, dispatch times, and wait and exception times. These relationships are described in the CICS Performance Guide.

The statistics listed in the following table are presented as averages per transaction, except where an average would not be meaningful (such as high water marks). These exceptions are marked with **.
