Specifying Natural options

The Natural Options screen allows you to configure the collection of data on Adabas and Natural program calls.

Note:
  1. If you specified ALL on the Region Configuration Menu, the initial values of the fields on the Natural Options screen are set to those of the first real CICS® region listed on the Region Configuration Menu; that is, the values are taken from the first region listed after the special ALL and DEFAULT applids. Both the CICS® APPLID and the SYSID are shown as ALL .
  2. If you specified DEFAULTS on the Region Configuration Menu, the initial values of the fields on the Natural Options screen are the defaults, taken from the CICS® IA control file, CIUCNTL. The CICS® APPLID is shown as DEFAULTS and the SYSID as DFTS™. Any changes that you make are saved in the control file and become the new default values.

    If you are editing the DEFAULTS record, you must specify Y or N in each field. You cannot specify a blank.

To call up this screen, go to the Resource Options screen, CIU290, type action code 6, and press Enter. The Natural Options screen, CIU29N, looks as follows:
