Step 4: Start the CICS Data Collector Automatically

A post-initialization table that overrides the default system initialization table (SIT) is required if you want to start the CICS Data Collector automatically during CICS initialization. The post-initialization table name is DFHPLTxx, where xx is the suffix specified by the SIT parameter PLTPI.

To have CICS use the DFHPLTPI table during post-initialization processing, code PLTPI=PI in the SIT. Code for DFHPLTPI has been supplied in the SAMPLIB member CICSPLT.

Note: If you are not currently using a PLTPI table, you can obtain one by specifying PLTPI=PI in the SIT override.
